Runs terrible after sitting over night - Need HELP - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

My 72 started and ran very good this morning. Last night I switched back to the original short choke spring rod as suggested.
And I shortened the pull off rod again, for the 3rd time.
The fast idle was good and kicked down as it should after some warm up. The choke blade came completely open.
I readjusted the throttle screw to slow down the idle just a bit.
I'm very happy with the way it's running. I will retest again tomorrow morning but feel like it's all good from here.

"Thank you" again to everyone for your help. You guys are the best !
