You have to do your homework here... Start by adjusting the idle mixture screws. If the carbs don't respond check for a plugged idle jet. You should also verify all the standard tune up stuff; timing and valve adjustment.

also i know i have a intake leak. Get the vacuum leak fixed as this could be the genesis of all your problems. when turning the air mixture screw all the way in on just one barrel theres no change in idle A clogged idle jet will cause this. . . |
