Spark plug reading incident to high speed throttle chop testing should help indicate whether or not the repair is providing an acceptable air-fuel mixture.

It's quite beautiful in person! Haha. I should just take him all the jets and needles to be cleaned. He did this in about an hour. $10 is what I gave him.

How did I not know of this guy earlier? I was telling friends that maybe the part broke to teach me something. Maybe it happened so I could meet this machinist. Who knows....

....

An excellent choice where ignition coil has removable spark plug wires.

I'm gonna give a junk yard a try. I would like to find a jet. I'll keep one for a spare,.. just in case.
