There are several places  I’ve used medical stores wheel chail pads and used a stiffer foan for foundation. Also an outfit by the name of foambymail diffent types and shapes. Had a company by the name of bestwayfoam send me some for my bike seat I like these guys. and found this http://www.become.com/seat-foam-replacement different types

There are many types of foam out there today. I would certainly look at a two part memory or softer section and a stiffer foundation. They also have some thermal foam that cuts down on sweating and its more breathable. You may spend a little more but could be huge savings on butt powder.

I’m guessing float or cut off. pretty easy pull air filter and tap fuel bowl top firmly with the handle of a screwdriver then try to start.

I had same problem and ordered new boots, they are still in box, the 5mm vinyl tape has worked fine. Hope to change in the winter. Might even clean engine.

My idle problem came down to an air leak in the rubbers on the intake manifold. those two ruber seals you see on each side of the carb start the engine and spray wd 4 around seals if it accelerates you have a leak.
