What will happen that's bad to a chevy that's set to idle at rpm? I turned my idle down to troll a bit slower 4 mph was my minimum, I'm down to 2. Typically I run 15 minutes on plane to get to where I'm going, then alternate 10 minutes of idling with minutes of planing for hours to do my thing.

Only thing I can see is that if you try to "HIT-IT" from an idle you could kill the motor from the fuel overload from the really low idle. Most 5. That offers good throttle responce and kinda ensures that you dont stall out just sitting there. Joined Jun 22, Messages I run also at idle as mentioned. Is this right after starting or after a couple of minutes?
Or will it high idle all the time until you hit the pedal? More info is needed for right diagnosis. There is no tach in it so i cannot tell you the exact rpm, but It sounds like If I start it up and hit the gas right after I start it, it will stay running high.
When it gets warmed up and I hit the gas it will go down. But it does not go down without hitting the gas, it continues to run high. If that helps. Sounds like normal operation to me. If you think its too high back out the high idle screw as mentioned.

It sounds like the idle circuit in carb has problems. By keeping rpms up you are taking carb out of idle circuit and you are simply masking another problem. Dec 23, 3, Surprise AZ. If its too low, say around in gear I can't two foot it quick enough to keep it running.
Once I get my stall converter I won't have to do that. Then again I'm still a new driver to I'm sure will get used to it. Evan11 Royal Smart Person. Apr 17, 1, 38 Southern Indiana. I get what you're saying actually. My engine idles in park rpm and idles in gear rpm. It will not run at a lower rpm. My rpm are based off the olds rallye pack that arent all that accurate tho. Think positively, 1,rpm idle keeps the oil pressure up and helps promote long cam life and also keep the waterpump moving helping the cooling system.

If so open it a hair. Watch down the primaries with it idling ,see any drips from the jet bar? If so you need to add bleed air so you can close the primary plates some. Q jets were famious for that prob after adding a big cam.
JohnEvans , Oct 11, I am going to check out the transfer slots, I do think I may have them too exposed, I have been reading up on holley tech stuff all night I do know I adjusted the secondaries.. I also have been thinking about the air bleeds Joined: Sep 9, Posts: 1, Profile Page. Joined: Dec 3, Posts: 9, Profile Page. Ported heads, extremely to boot.
Victor Jr intake, duration, RPM is the lowest. What more do you want? Try this. More initial timing but still stay at 32 to 36 total timing. Johnny Gee , Oct 11, Joined: Oct 7, Posts: 8, Profile Page.
