Pushed the car to the side and have not touched it. Went to Vegas to visit the in-laws for a week. Now I am thrashing on my late model stock car. We have a winter festival coming up with a road race downtown. They close down several blocks and create a 1 mile coarse. Lots of fun. Tech is this Saturday and the race in on Feb 18-19th.
The high idle is roughly the same when the engine is cool or fully heated. Choke connected vs disconnected is no difference - hot or cold. Throttle linkage is disconnected. No obvious vac leaks. New dual return springs. Transfer slot is covered by butterflies. Idle screws make no change. Base of carb and top of intake checked ok with a straight edge.
Did not think of covering the carb with my hands to see what happens.
After the race, I will pull the Holley off the late model and see how it runs.
