edelbrock problems

[CSGAS]

The post at the top of this page is really starting to sound more like a distributor problem, and just a coincidence that it happened when you swapped carbs--did you change anything to the distributor other than connecting the vaccuum advance (bumped the cap, etc)? Is it still points or electronic?

Also, when you took it off did you check the throttle plates?

When you put it back on did you reset the mixture and idle speed screws? Did you find anything else that the linkage--on either side--could be hanging up on when the truck should be idling?

You did say that you had rebuilt the Eddy a few times, but the most recent time what method did you use for cleaning? Did you blow out the passages with air before reassembly? Lastly, did the accelerator pump look god or dried out? Rubber (pink) or silicone (blue) seal on it (or leather from a lucky rebuild kit)?

I hope we can get this sorted out for ya.
