Dealer sells those shims?

YES or any mod shop

If it surged, then you had a lean spot condition. Possibly water in the fuel or crappy gas or a plugged jet from the fuel congealing. I only run premium and shell if at all possible. I also add an ounce of marvel mystery oil to every tank of fuel.

Yep Spark plugs and camara tell me it leaned out..s%#$

stock pilot jets are 17.5..... they only effect the idle and throttle advance off idle and up. Needles probably should be shimmed.
