TLW is correct. I tried bigger jets in mine and had to back off. You need to figure out what is going on in that bottom carb.

Found the issue it turned out to be a leaking enricher valve and to top it off I had half of a reed break off on #6 cylinder. Pulled both heads and got extremely lucky, no damage at all. Got a set of carson reeds installing them tomorrow along with the enricher valve. I appreciate everyone's input, thank you.
