I have an Edelbrock 1406 on my 302, just rebuilt it, got the timing set, got the idle screws dialed in pretty well. I had lost the fast idle linkage during rebuild, bought a replacement and since I put it back on, I've been having the following issue;
It drives great, accelerates great, but when I'm at very light throttle, like as little pressure as I can physically put on the pedal, it skips and kinda lurches, you know like when you're running out of gas. Can anyone tell me the most likely cause?
I also have an Edelbrock calibration kit, but right off the bat I'm confused on how to use it. It says normal (full) vacuum should be 14-22 mm/Hg, but mine is reading 29 mm/Hg. I read that high readings could be from clogged air filter, but i removed the air cleaner housing and no change. Just throwing that info out there. Also increasing RPM does not change the vacuum reading...if anything it goes UP a tad??
