if you just crack the throttle wide open in your drive way the front two barrels are the only ones that should open the secondaries will only open under a load such as driving down the road so the only way to test it is to be driving and if they dont open when you driving your car will quit pulling at around 2000 to 2500 rpm

The secondary throttle blades on an Edelbrock carb are mechanically actuated. They will open when the throttle is blipped past about 2/3 open. The secondary air valve above them may not.
