<VV> and Idling

[Matt Nall]

Which raises my next question/problem: The RH carb won't maintain a low idle 
unless you physically hold down the linkage. It wants to constantly run up above 
600-700 rpm. I >don't think it's the idle mixture; it just wants to open the 
throttle up. I replaced the bent wire linkage(s) before overhaul with the screw 
type linkage bars and have them set like I >think they should be, but to no 
avail. The LH one works fine. I put a heavy spring on the connecting bar where 
the accelerator rod hooks on, but that just twists that connecting bar >across 
the 2 feet or so of travel and the RH one keeps opening up. Any suggestions?

Get rid of the heavy spring!!    Disconnect the pass. side downlink...


see if it idles fine....  then adjust that rod accordingly.


You don't mention "Balancing Airflow"...  I suggest you get someone from the local Corvair Club?  to help you...
