The snorkel device between the carb and the air filter is a compensator that automatically adjusts the fuel mixture for a dirty air filter.

It works by biasing the fuel regulator diaphragm in the carb for any changes in carb inlet air pressure.

It will not compensate for a MM.

You will have to richen the mixture yourself for the MM.
We should share what we know... someone may learn...
That knowledge can live after us... and that "Pays It Forward".
Be all that you can be . . .
