Yet another carb question
Okay so I had my car running pretty good, but when warm it idled rough and wanted to stall. so being the genius I am I decided i could adjust the carb (dumb idea). Now, even though I put everything back to where it was, the car idles nice but has absolutely no power (at all). As soon as i touch the throttle the vacuum drops to like 2" or 3" and the carb sounds like it is taking in a hurricane of air. Anyone know what the H*ll I did?
Thanks in advance

Found part of the problem. The universe aligned or something cause one of the metering rods was stick down. This had to have happened when i was adjusting the idle screws cause it was running fine before. Now i just have idle issues.

HOW A METERING ROD GOT STUCK (BENT) HOWEVER NOT WHILE SCREWING UP THE IDLE MIXTURE SCREWS. POOR IDLE COULD BE VAC LEAK. HAPPY MOTORING. LYNN
