Re: Please Help ASAP

Edelbrock has great docs, instructions, and even videos of carb adjustments online - just go to their website and you'll find them.

Get yourself a rebuild kit for it, and a "trick kit" or whatever they call it, that has all the jets, rods, and other metering parts, to set it up to match your engine's demands.

I'm not a fan of their carbs, at all; but one thing I will give them, is that they make the parts to maintain and calibrate them, very easy to obtain.
