I recently purchased a period correct 283 315hp fuelie engine and had my fuel injection system rebuilt and the engine runs fine but will not idle. I made adjustments to the air and fuel screws with no success the engine will idle for a few seconds and then start bouncing between 400 and 1000 rpm then stall. I checked all the hoses and they are connected and tight not sure what to try next. If anyone has experience with the Rochester fuel injection system I would appreciate any advice on what to try. The only way I can drive it presently is when coming to a stop light or sign put it in neutral and keep the rpm's above 1000. Thank you in advance for suggestions.
