Paul I was absolutely certain my carb was clean.  The only reason I tore it 
back down was because the guy that told me it had trash in it is right  99% 
of the time.  I took his word for it.  Whatever was down in that main jet 
was small enough that I never saw it but after another round of spray carb 
cleaner and compressed air it was fixed.
