Hi there.
First off you need to give your year, engine and any mods to like emissions.
What's the status of your shutter / coasting valve (year depending. see why we need to know??)

it an 83 gsl manual. completely stock! shutter valve is new. idle screw is out all the way and the a/f screw is out only 2 full turns. yes i cleaned every thing i made sure the passage ways were clear b4 i put it back together. its was leaking fuel from the thing with a wire on the end that screws into the front of the carb below the fuel lines i think that just needs the crush washer replaced.
if you guys have anymore insight to this let me know
