Rossoh the carb body will be covered under the warranty, please contact me at [email protected] and give me your information, I will send you out a new carb body. Over tightening the pinch bolt or not having a smooth angle on the slide can cause this problem. 200 ounces is equivalent to 12.5 pounds of pressure. I have found that fixing the carb is better in the long run then replacing so if you want I can call you and walk you thru the repair or you can send in carb and I can repair it for you.
