Turning the GAV open 1 turn seems to not change much. I'll try tomorrow with more than 1 revolution, maybe that will fix it? (I doubt it though)
If that doesn't help, I'll check for vacuum leaks and in case I don't find any will probably disassemble the carb and check the GAV valve seat and the passageways.
Using brake cleaner is probably not the recommended method with the exhaust manifold being on the same side as the intake? Clean Water with a pump sprayer or culinary torch?
