I have a 1980 g that wont idle well. It back fires, wanders around rpms. Sounds great reved up but doesnt fall back to idle fast as it should if at all.
I know its running rich from the look of the plugs and the gas stench the thing gives off is obvious.
Is my mac 4-2 exhaust causing the rich mixture. Do i have to re-jet?
My neighbor thinks i need to re-adjust the idle mixture screws. As well as clean them out well, (2 pilot jets were clogged) Theres only one problem with the idle screws, cant find em. I have a clymer manual that shows them clearly but my carbs have a brass cap with a small hole in the center.
Theres a screw just under the spring that snaps the throttle back, is that the idle adjustment screw?
I've tried synchronizing with a mercury gauge, but no go. Any ideas?
