Well, I think I'm FINALLY on the right track. I got a friend whos got a friend and was in the right place at the right time. Yesterday after the Belvidere show were back at my buddies shop. Anyway I described my problem as best I could. Before you know it I'm pulling NIKKI"S carb off out in the street. As it happens I had NO secondary idle whatsoever. Once the rears were cracked open I could bring the primary idle down. The response with the for corner mix screws was instantainious!!!!!!! The vacccum gauge responded to turns right away. Although I still need to do some fine tuning I believe I'm now going the right direction. I have found power in this car I've NEVER had before!!
Now understand I was NOT familiar with this setup, it's a far cry from the qudadrabog on my Pontiac. As I've said a lilltle knowlege is dangerous and I had little! I have never messed with the secondary idle EVER!! Which means when I got her she was this way. I bought this car with a carb that was not properly set up to begin with!!! Its no wonder I couldn't get the vac gauge to repond like it does on my Pont.
I'm still gonna play/tweak a little now that I'm going in what I feel is the right direction. And now allot of YOUR SUGGESTIONS are making sense to me!
I never thought this post would turn into a novel, my humble apolgies. And sincere thanks for everyone's help.
