Years ago I removed the choke towers completely because there were no mechanism in either one. Then I had some work done on the carbs and the cam on the primary throttle shaft for fast idle was removed and lost, so I lost even the fast idle capabilities for warm up. Starting ,in anything other than summer, became hard. So I had my internals Of primary carbrueter installed in another carbrueter body. Originally I had made my own arched vent tube for each carb resemling the Avenger carbs. Now that I have the front carb with a working choke and with the clearence inside a S&H aircleaners The hose on the vent tubes with a notch at the highest point isn't an option. So the vent whistles are the intended cure for the this stumbling part of mysetup.
I' trying to come up with a working plan to limit the number of times I have to take this apart. Is the HC reading of 279 PPM at cruise of 2500 RPM in neutral with no catalitic converters as lean as I should go on the jetting.
I don't expect to meet the standards but I'd like to get closer with atleast the idle emmissions. My garage getts bad when starting the car in side.
