(I don't even think I'll have to mess with main jets- just feddle with the idle jets.) you hope but I would bet if the idle jets were leaned out so are probably the mains and air correctors as well, since the whole carb was set up to run lean.

I'm sure you are correct on that- but I'm also thinking if Inglese is correct and the idles do 80% of the lifting at low speed...wishful thinking for sure but I'm also pretty sure that new idle jets will correct 80% of the symptoms. They are almost exclusively low engine speed.Originally Posted by mopar_ja
Looking forward to messing with it.
You're initial post regarding jetting was my light bulb moment. It just dawned on me how lean that truck was running when I pulled a jet out and it was a 47.5. PATHETIC.
Now that I think of it, I think it runs a tad warmer than it should because it's overly lean.
Sure it won't hurt a bit to bump up the richness a setting or two.
Driving me nuts waiting for the kit to show up.
