Help me with a fast idle issue.. Updated
I'm trying to diagnose a fast idle problem. My carbs have been rebuilt and I've got the timing set at 8 degrees ATDC (I have a Mallory dizzy without the vacuum advance). Anything over 900rpms and my engine diesels badly. So my first inclination was to lower the idle speed, only the idle screws are backed out completely. So I'm thinking that I need to take a close look at the way I've got all my vacuum/emission lines set up. I've made quick diagram that details how I've got things plumed. Is this correct?
I'm pretty sure that I don't have any vacuum leaks. Since I've got the Mallory, the vacuum plug on the bottom of Carb 3 is plugged.
Please see attached file for the diagram.
