The correct jet size is #45.  Here's something to think about that will
drive the "experts" wild.  Both the coupes I've owned had this jet. 
Both of these planes would often die out on takeoff or cruise.  Every
expert in the land looked at the carb and everything else - no
solution.  On both planes I used a jeweller's file to ream about .002
inch out of the jet.  Neither plane ever gave trouble again.

Inquiring on this chat line I had numerous people answer me, saying they
had the same problem.  We're not talking carb ice here.  It is my belief
that the shape of the air intake on the coupe somwhat supercharges the
carb with air and the jet is just slightly small to handle it.  Other
people have oversized their jets with good results.  If you do ever
suffer loss of power, carb heat will almost always return engine sounds
immediately.  I can't recommend that you do this, but it has worked for
me and others.
