Re: Engine Help $$$$

[scott-c-arnold@xxxx]

That's right, I am replying to my own message. I was a little peeved 
this morning when I wrote the previous message...after cooling down, I 
went back at it. To my surprise, I spent some time adjusting the 
air/fuel mixture (using the set screw in the fuel distributor) and got 
her running! However, I still need to perform some cold weather 
testing as it was fairly warm outside today. The worst problem I have 
now seems to be the idle seeking, which is ranging all the way from 
500rpm up to 1500rpm. Anyone have any suggestions on if this can be 
improved?

Thanks,

Scott
