Hysteric, that is an excellent post. Thank you for the link. I am looking at the chart now and I agree that my 440 is far happier with an idle between 11.7-12.6. I get far better vacuum readings with that A/F

My problem is when RPMs increase off-idle, the mixture drops in A/F to 10-11 and I get a stumble in power. After the quick stumble it starts to lean out as it should. I only get this from idle. If I lean the idle mixture to 13-14 then the drop and stumble is not as bad.

On the other end, the power is 1-2 points too lean even with the jet and rod changes and my WOT is still too lean as well. I am hoping some spring changes today may help with those too.

As for the low-end rich stumble, I may replace the nozzle on the accelerator to get a leaner injection to help me get that smooth transition from idle to cruise that is shown in the chart you posted.



Are the metering rods lifting early? Try softer metering rod springs.
