Post by orangatangus »

36 dells on a 1776,cant adjust #1 hole.Pulls twice as much air as the other 3,cleaned idle circuit till i'm blue in the face and still needle makes no difference when wound in or out,must have had the carb off a dozen times,changed gaskets every time both sides of intake I'm stumped

Bent throttle shaft?
Yeah some may call it overkill, but you can't have too much overkill.

sprayed every thing with brake cleaner,starting fluid and ran butane gas all around the carb looking for vaccume leaks,no change in idle,135 compression all around.Hell I can put my palm over the #1 carb and Idle stays the same
