67 is likely to have the fix in place since the bulletin is from 1965 
however if the needle were missing entirely that would account for "4-5 
MPG". Doesn't take much & worth a look if everything else has been exhausted.

And naturally while fiddling with the choke on mine, the fresh air hose on 
the upper shroud fell apart. Clarks lists two: an original repro (C 764) 
and a rubber one (C 764X) that cost less and is supposed to last longer. 
This will never be a serious show car, am just not into that. Is the rubber 
one really better ?
