i didnt know there were idle and transfer slots on the secondaries. I can pull the float bowl, and main metering block which the carb is still on the car right? I will do as you say. you mentioned compressed air for the main body. are you saying that after I remove the main metering block that I should blow out all openings in the "main body" of the carb? what about blowing out the metering block passages? Also, what power valve setting should I get. I'm thinking like a 6.5" or less right? last time I did a vacuum check I had about 10".
