Any chance you've got cracked/damaged vacuum line or intake leak? Have you put a vacuum gauge on it to see what the manifold vacuum is doing?

Can't change the idle spraying carb cleaner around the carb base. I've tried resetting the idle bleeds everywhere from 1.5 to 3.0 turns off their seats, and all I get is a "hunting" idle, that gradually gets worse as the engine warms up. Then eventually it stalls.




Does adjusting the air/fuel screws change the idle at all?

I did a search of the site, and found some folks who are actually running ThermoQuads, so I'm hoping that by way of a "welcome to the club" one of those folks might have a tip or two for me.

If you give the metering rod tree screw a 1/2 turn clockwise, does your idle improve?
