has anyone cleaned up the idle swapping idle air bleeds ? this is a 1050 . What are the stock sizes , and how much bigger is recommended ? Ive already played with the mix screws and throttle blades , but it still seems pretyy rich at idle.
i dont remember off hand the list # on my carb , i know its something like 8082-1 . 4 corner idle mix . 3.5 Power valve in front , none in rear.
Also does anyone have any for sale? Looks like Jegs wants $20 a pair if i read it right.
I have you could also find a local rebuild that has blank air bleeds much cheaper & drill them small & work your way up.

use some carb cleaner withthe long tube nozzle first and make sure all the passages are clean. you can also try increasing your idle bleed size .007-.010" that's plenty to see if it helps, and it normally does. there are other mods that canbe done also, but that's the easiest and cheapest to start out with.

if throttle blades are not set properly, you will chase this problem forever. that would be the first thing i check

First take them all the way out and see if that helps clean it up...It might not be the idle circuit at all. The outer ones by there self is the ones to omit for now...
?? what do you mean? take them out? I think that would be way lean.
like i said--ive tuned this one as far as its going to go--- still a bit rich at idle--as in..."get outa the garage soon" too rich exhaust... but not WAY too overwhelming....;)
Ive leaned it as far as i can without it dying at idle--idle is around 1000 .
EDIT---- ok, will try without the bleed jets.
Letting it idle like that some wont hurt it a bit, I didnt mean to toss them in the trash, this would just be away to pin point the problems. If this doesnt clean it up, your idle circuit isnt the problem. You need to back the speed screws all the way out from touching, them give the front about 3/4-1 turn in after contact, give the rear a little more about 1 1/2 turns. Turn the idle mixture screws all the way in, and then back out 3/4 of a turn, fine tune from there. Make sure the float level is correct, Dominators are pretty sensitive on floar adjustment. Set them low enough to were you have to bounce on the car to get fuel to run out while idling, then turn it in another 1/3 turn down. Again Fine tune from there..
If your timing isnt up to snuff at idle, no carb tuner in the world can make it idle clean....
Big cam.....get about 20 deg intial, other wise pointless to tune any more

YOu can try this little trick, take the air bleed completly out of the intermediate and high speed circuits. This should effectivly dissable them or at least desensitise them for idle tunning. If for some reason the throttle blades are open to far, it can be taking fuel from the intermediate circuit. If removing the air bleeds from those circuits makes it better, you may need to go up on the intermediate air bleeds. Allan G
