After doing several hours worth of work on my carbs, I finally had the mixture and idle speed at what seemed like acceptable levels.
I then replaced the air cleaners and reconnected the vacuum advance for the distributor. Trouble is, the idle speed went up 2 or 300 RPM. I could have adjusted the idle screws, but getting the carbs to breathe the same amount of air had been a tedious operation, and that might also throw off the mixture.
Is that normal, and should I re-do all that work with the vac advance hooked up? I'm willing, but not if it takes until after midnight /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/nonod.gif Is this a sign that the vac advance may be failing? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thank you,
