"I got troubles boss"
my motor just won't run right, it idles a few secs and then juumps up a rev and back to normal and up again. i think this could be many things but if anyone has been there and got a sugestion it would be great.


it's in a hj tonner for the those who care.

I would be checking the gasket under the carb. Also check any hoses for leaks around the carb as well.

Yes, sounds like an air leak somewhere. If its a quadrajet try jiggling the primary throttle shaft up and down as its idling and see if it affects idle - sometimes the shaft wears the holes in the throttle body (become elongated) and you get funny idle sy

i looked pritty hard for leaks everywere but no sign of anything nor wisling. the throttle arm is no isue because it's a new carb but the power valve might be an isue. if it has low vac it won't stay closed and may be making it rev alittle here and there.

I once had a similar problem thinking it was the carby. Since you have now checked that (as it was more likely - still you can spray carb cleaner or even water with a spray bottle all round the carb whilst running and see if idle is affected - be careful
