HI All.
HI, OK..
first question.. if I only have 12ins of vacuum would a 6.5 Power valve cause flooding at idle??
Second,
I've had it rebuilt by a carburetor shop. having a problem with it flooding occasionally and doesn't seam to clear out once flooded and runs pig rich.. Floats are set to the bottom of the sight glass.
If I give it a one full pump when cold it well flood and not clear out and runs pig rich and missing bad.
if it give it just a tough to set choke and rev it to fast idle it seams Ok and runs fine..
Second thought maybe I should switch to HEI coil with 8 mm wires to get a hotter / better spark?
any thoughts will be appreciated..
Cam is .420 lift at .50 In and Ex. duration 270 In, and Ex. 110 lobe seperation.
its been running fine up till the past few months..
its been awhile but i think my timing is 28* at 2800.. haven't checked idle timing.
Plugs are white
Thanks , take care be safe
