Download the carb manual in my sig sig line, read through it then you may need to order the rebuild kit for it. That will get you pointed in the right direction.

Unless the you have modded the carb for mechanical secondaries, you won't be able to see them opening while revving it up in the driveway.

Make sure that the float bowl vent solenoid is hooked up. This is on the side of the carb, right behind the alternator. A single wire hooks to it.
