Re: Erratic Idle - If it Idles at All
check all the vac houses are connected and routed properly. also, you might try spraying the carb down inside and out with carb cleaner spray. that will get any build up off the butterfly throttle assembly. I also spray all the linkage occasionally with LPS or WD40, or similar, to keep it from sticking. sometimes when it sits around a lot, the mechanical parts on the carb and linkage can get sticky.
