Can't stress enough how edelbrock carbs are funny about fuel pressure.

I went out and bought another fuel pressure regulator as the one I installed previously had no effect on the fuel pressure, Im installing it as we speak. So going down the checklist I starting messing with the choke and discovered if I close the choke and clamp it down the truck will idle! Sounds right too. Once I hit the throttle it will die. Do I need to adust my fast idle screw? The cam and screw are currently not touching unless I manually close the choke by hand. I never have the choke closed but once I did so it actually stayed on. Ive never messed with the fast idle screw how is it supposed to be set?
