Thanks for the education guys. I thought I'd lost my mind for a little bit there.
I hadn't considered the possibility that the main jet could be rich enough to cause milking too. Mine always seemed to be a barrel valve issue. I had mine set a 17% as well and seemed to be fine. It was a little hard to start cold or hot, and I knew it was probably the barrel valve being too lean, but it was running too good to mess with it.....
