It was cool this morning so when I got to the truck I turned the throttle stop and the 2 idle screws out 3 turns each but left the captive spring screw alone, I have already turned that one out a ways. Started it with ether since the choke is open and she idled fairly well, don't know what RPM since I don't have a way to tell. Once she warmed up though I heard it kick up a bit. Know that the arm going to the throttle stop adjusts fuel when choke is on, am I right on that? Another thing to note is a few years ago I believe it was idling high and I did tweak the distributor timing without a light. I was fresh out of my mechanic classes and I heard the idle kick down with the distributor so I was happy. I have a timing light now but with the idle high I don't see the timing mark so I spect its because of the high idle, I could be wrong. This truck is a mess and I am trying to fix her up.
