Re: dominator wont idle
Sounds like a vacuum leak of the major kind.

Re: dominator wont idle
Give us some more info, such as engine size, cam type, compression, intake type,etc. and we'll try to give you some ideas.
For what it's worth, 3-circuit dominators are a pain to try to work with on the street. Their street manners are poor, at best. With some work, they can be made somewhat acceptable. A 2-circuit dominator would be a better choice for a street-driven application, in my humble opinion.

Re: dominator wont idle
A vacuum leak will definitely cause the problem that you're having. If you check this out and it doesn't fix your problem, let us know.
