Complex engine problem?
While investigating my 1k rpm rattle, I was revving the engine up and letting it go back down so i could make it go past 1k to hear the noise and see where it was coming from. After a couple of times of doing this however, the engine stay at 1500 rpm and wont go any lower. I can't find any vacuum leaks, The primary and secondary butterflies are shut. I just don't get what the hell is going on with this thing. Anyone have any ideas?

I just checked out a couple of things first. it idles fine when cold, but after you gun it a couple of times it stays above 1500. Float level is fine. linkages are fine. all butterflies are closed. still cannot find vacuum leak... Need help. Has anyone ever heard of this?

i don't have the rattle, but mine does thesame thing, usally if i've been driving for a bit, if i come to a stop and rev the gas, ocasionaly the idle will sit around 1500, then after a 30 seconds or longer it will go back to 750/800

There is a valve assebly on the side of the carb. it has a vacuum hose hooked to it and has a hose that goes up to the air filter assebly and a hose the goes down to the intake manifold.
