Not a chance. This carb couldnt have been any cleaner. I always clean all passages out with torch tip cleaners, carb cleaner, and a blast of over 120psi of air. Not every carb needs to be modified internally, but I guess this one did. Like I said, it has never idled better or cleaner, I leaned out the primary cruise step and fattened up the secondary jets while it was apart. Plugs look good, pulls harder, and idles great.
