Carter TQ carb tuning - now with improved 'computer technology'...
So below are 3 separate runs:
1) baseline run, stock setups as follows:
ROD = 2110
JET_P = 95
JET_S = 137
AIRBLEED = 65
2) RUN2, moved to richer rods resulting in 8% more fuel @ cruise and 5% more @ WOT (primary side only), used a smaller idle air bleed, looking to bleed off less idle signal and cause the idle circuit to pull more fuel
ROD = 1996
JET_P = 95
JET_S = 137
AIRBLEED = 54
3) RUN3, kept the richers rods but moved to a much smaller idle air bleed, result was an instant 'HOLY [Edited by Farley's]'...now we've got idle and idle mixture screws actually work!!!...basically with the roughly 1/2 sized air bleed (size wise not surface area) I am bleeding off much less signal now and therefore causing a lot more fuel to be fed into the carb idle circuit...nearing the Carter TQ idle holy grail here...
ROD = 1996
JET_P = 95
JET_S = 137
AIRBLEED = 37
