decided not to go to the shop.

i replaced the fan belt, which is definately tighter then the old one was.
idles better, but i don't think it has the power it had when on the highway after driving for 10-20 minutes.

didn't tear the carb apart, yet

clean up the carb a bit and change your fuel filter. Rebuild kits are cheap and the job goes by pretty fast.
