Rough-idling 360, can't figure it out!

Working through the "Process of Elimination" here.

Let's see if it is a fuel starved situation when it is warmed up idling in gear.

When it starts to stumble, reach up to the Choke Butterfly on the carb and slowly start to close it down by hand and see if the stumble starts to go away. This should give it a little more fuel at idle, if the fuel bowls are full of fuel.

If the fuel bowls are not full of fuel, this probably won't help.

So if it is a fuel supply problem try this next test. With the engine running idling in gear (with someone with their foot on the brakes).

As the engine is stumbling give it a quick shot of Starting Fluid into the front 2 barrels at the choke, see if your stumble starts to go away. If it does, then you have a fuel supply problem.
