Re: Carb has too much idle hole drilled?
The timing was confirmed at 10 degrees while cranking. I have no vacuum advance. I attached the timing light to each wire and they all produce flashes so all 8 cylinders are firing.
I'll do the brakleen tonight. If that fails, I'll put one pair of stamped rockers back on and check compression on that cylinder. If that fails, I'll pull the intake and reseat it (I removed the intake without removing the distributor)
The compression might be lower because I relieved the valves and smoothed the flash completely off the combustion chambers (and the runners: heads+intake). I probably added a few CC's. Shouldnt that just offset the smaller CC's on the gt-40p's and put me back where I started?
Hey, this carb has screw in air bleeds (they look like jets). Maybe someone messed with the bleeds.
