Replaced a quadrajet with a rebuilt one from a supposedly reputable carb rebuilder.
I cannot get this thing to idle. When I put my hand over the airhorn, it seems happier, so I'm thinking lean? Sometimes when it dies, it will sometimes whistle for a few seconds from the carb. If there's an internal vacuum leak, where should I look? All vacuum ports are plugged.
Timing is at 10btdc. Plugs are new. Wires look good. Coil has a little corrosion, but the spark is still blue.
Thanks
