As I posted above, the problems I had with out of adjustment valves included poor starting, and wanting to idle at 500 rpm or 3,000 rpm but nothing inbetween. High rpm running was fine.

If it were mine, I'd start with valves, because you can chase carb problems all year if the valves are out of spec.
