Build a large sling shot and fire it at your enemies.

Re: Another Issue with an Edelbrock 1406

Help me find an fuel injected LS(something) and we'll see about shooting the 'brock out of a large sling shot.

i took some videos of what its doing, if i can figure out how to uplaod a video. is there something in the FAQ on how to do that?

Re: Another Issue with an Edelbrock 1406

ok. it appears to have worked.

the center gauge is the A/F and the gauge on the right "boost" is the vacuum.

i tore the carb back apart and blew everything out. I couldnt find anything wrong with it.

once back together it seemed fine, but it always does when i start messing with it in the driveway. we'll see what happens tomorrow.

Re: Another Issue with an Edelbrock 1406

After blowing the carb back out last night. it appeared to be idling fine, but it always does when i start retuning it.

On the way to work this morning the idle rpm would be different at each red light i stopped at. also the idle A/F was way lean, 10-11. at lunch it went back to doing the same thing going extremely lean at idle and the idle rpm would be higher than it was supposed to be and different light to light.

i really dont understand why its doing this.
