I think my Eldo has the V9 needle, and that it is also correct. Did you
put in NEW V5 needles?

To everyone on the list that has been helpful, thanks a million. Turns out that although the idle, main, and needle jets were correct, the needle was a V9 instead of V5. Put in the correct needle, and the bike is running pretty good. Just for info, I ended up with the mixture screws about 3 turns out. Thursday I am going to the BMW National at Charleston, WV (about 250 miles), and then another 250 or so to Louisville for a concert, and 100 or so gettin home. So it should be a pretty good shake down, although I still have the ugly tank on while I wait on MG Classics to finish and ship my nice white one. Once I do get the tank back, I'll shoot some pictures for the web site. Thanks again for all the suggestions, you guys are great. See ya at Mid-Ohio.
