My cam battery ran out. I have it in the box and all laid out then pics of what I removed. Nothing of it installed yet. It started easy, it ran snappy and seemed to idle high. After I refilled the coolant I loosened the idle stop screw but the linkage didn't pull back to it. So I made it flush and then used the set screw you do first when resetting these and turned it in a half turn and that seems to be about right.

there is a 1/8th plastic spacer in here under that gasket. I have no idea why but it wasn't necessary for the new kit.

The new kit suggested an idea I never heard of which is to soak the gaskets in oil for a few minutes or to grease them before using them. I used oil. Then patted them dry. I think they will seal better. The bolt hole in the front of the dog leg is stripped when the bolt hits bottom. If it becomes a problem the hole goes all the way through so I will drill it and put a bolt through with a nut on the other end. When the cam battery is charged I will takes pics of the instructions and the installed carb and post them. Oh yea look at pic 5 I had to flip that slot the bolt is through for the throttle cable to the other side so that the cable didn't rub the linkage once the new carb was installed.
All of the rubber or neoprene caps I had on were cracked and useless so I replaced them with the silicon ones I got.
EDIT- The camera is hiccuping or something since the SD card only shows one pic but I took 3 of the carb with the air cleaner off. Anyway here is a pic of it from the front. you can see how I changed the throttle cable anchor point. and the 6 pages of instructions I used.
