Idle woes 120-130

posted by  someone claiming to be patrickofmontreal on  Sun Aug 29 19:23 CST 2004 [RELATED]

mal adjusted/leaking fuel float needles will cause high idle, as raw gas will be pushed through the metering jet. Get the ignition 100 percent before fooling with the carbs. Bad spark plug cables/old ditributor could be causing the fouling. Basically there can be more than one culprit causing these symptoms.
