Poor idle, Wanna be mechanic

[Tommyups]

I have an update on my idling problem. With the help Of my Mopar Motorhead friend. The first thing he noticed was how the engine vibrated so much and ultimately realized that the fast idle solenoid set screw was missing and causing the Solenoid to move around on its own Raising and lowering the idle. I think someone mentioned I have a Rochester carburetor, so I’ll just need to find a setscrew that fits. I really appreciate everybody helping me out.

Good to know! Good mechanics can cross the brand lines and still diagnose problems. Keep us posted!
