Has anyone changed the stock air bleeds on one of these carbs? If so how did you do it? My engine is loading up at idle even when I lean the adjustment screws enough to cause lean misses at idle. The symptom has to do with my accelerator pump, I can rev the engine a few times to clean it out and then the throttle response is great but if I let it idle for a few moments the off idle response gets somewhat soggy. The engine is in good tune, my advance curve is 15* at idle, 20* mechanical all in by 3000 and 6* vacuum connected to full time vacuum. My cam really likes all this advance at idle and I can get a very nice rumpity idle but, as I said, it loads up. Thanks for any help!
I can't help (no real Edel experience) you but I am sure a Carb Tech at Edelbrock would be glad to help you diagnose and fix your problem. Give them a call?
