So if it does run over 2,000 rpms it sounds like the idle and idle transfer circuits are the problem. Edelbrock has a good on line tech manual on how the carb works and explains all the circuits. There is also a You Tube video on taking the top of the carb off. I would take the top off. Take out the idle jets and blow through the idle jet holes and main jets with carb cleaner. I would also blow through the air bleeds on the top by the venturis. Wear glasses so you don't get carb cleaner in your eyes. Cover your paint on the car or just take the carb off and do it on a bench.

HI, thanks for the quick reply.
the air cleaner was on the entire time, no debris and it does squirt fuel.
