Q & A: Different Carb/Worse Gas Mil

Q & A, MGA, MGB, MGC, MG T-Type, Midget

seemed to work fine and gives a lot more pep to the engine. However my gas
mileage has gone from 28 mpg to 15mpg. Is there something I can do to
adjust the carburetor to get back better gas mileage? Or is the choke
staying on because the cylinder is not seating down into the choke
chamber?
