1050 dom.8896.with the car running the secondaries wont close all the way.shut the car off and every thing snaps shut like it should.

---

Also, hold the carb up to a light and check the throttle butterflies for evenness in the venturies and loosten the screws and get em as even as possible then red locktite and you`re golden.

well its workin great now.all I did was take it apart and check everything that was suggested.it all checked out good.but I did notice that my rear pumpshot adjustment was extra loose.so I tightened that up so there was a very slight gap and it works perfect.

---

Normally zero gap unless you`re trying to delay/lean shot.

Some I know and study go to great lengths to "fine tune" every inch and that means sometimes slowing down or delaying shot based on fuel curve data.........
