Carb Adjustment?
Can someone inform me on how to adjust my carb or provide a diagram of sorts? My car is running rich and idles somewhat high and cuts out when i hit the throttle. Its a stock carb which came with the 2.8 liter

if you're sure that a good tune up has been done w/ spark plugs, cap, rotor, wires, air & fuel filters, then check out a Haynes manual, there's a lot for your carb in the 82-92 book. might be at local library for check out.

Yeah, i did a tune up including every last little thing you listed there not more than 4 or 5 months ago. As far as the manual goes, im sure i should probably just buy one, itll be a good investment. =] Thanks for the info and reply!
