[Mulletwagon]

The caper continues. Took a length of hose, put one end in my good ear and poked around the carb and intake manifold with the other. Found a small vacuum leak on the flange-to-head area of the intake manifold which was corrected by snugging up the fasteners. Also did a manifold vacuum check which came in at 22 inches Hg - pretty high. Decreased the idle to about 550 rpm which made the mixture adjustment effective. At the higher rpm the mixture needle could be closed and the engine still ran - engine probably feeding off the high speed jet. Also richened the mixture knob another quarter turn and the stalling problem went away. Still think I have a carb problem but I am on the road again. What rpm should the idle speed be ?
