well, my old quadrajet was running rich, and the adjustment screws were cut off and filled in, so i put another carb on it (a carter) i think ive got it running good, with each screww turned out about 2 1/2 turns counter clockwise, but am wondering how do i really know? is there a set way for doing this? thanks
