Oh I had forgotten that I did get one of these it's a 4 page pamphlet..

Anyway .. I got the airflow synched. I adjusted the idle mixture screws and the idle air holes seem clear. I sprayed some carb cleaner down them and the idle accelerated telling me that the carb cleaner was going all the way through and giving the engine a little boost.

However the idle is still rough. Tomorrow I'm going see if the exhaust manifold needs to be tightened? I guess there is no sure fire way to know if there is any air getting through it? Is there any way to test it??

My rebuild of the heater valve was 50% succesfull.. one side is still leaking. The gaskets in it had turned to paste.

Other things to get around to.. find the small leak in the transmission, put on the new muffler and replace light in dash.
