I realized the blue slide carb we have was not screwed down tight and had to close it a bit more (about 1/3 turn) to get it tight per the rules at a recent race. This means the slide opening was probably a bit less than the .520 limit or even the .515 end of the slide tool Jimbo sells. To get where I can get the cap tight but be closer to the legal limit would replacing the gasket help (gasket is original)? If I get a new cap do the newer ones have better tolerances? Or do I just have to sand the thing down as described here and as permitted by the rules? As a follow up do the engine builders on the thread optimize the slide opening in slide restricted LO206 that they sell or is this always a DIY task?
