Heh, me too, I can adjust the idle mixture, but thats about as far as I know, hence why I took it to the shop. Luckily I know the guy, and he wotn rip me off. I think i should be fine with this one, the only reason people switch to a Holley or other design Carb over a Qjet is because the Qjet uses forced air to open the secondaries, whereas a holley has a mechanical linkage, when you need 100% throttle RIGHT NOW. As this car is mostly street driven, hardly ever need that, and it has massive airflow for a street driven carb. Maybe i'll get some mileage gains out of it anyway, and a bit better throttle response since it'll be running the right A/F. Come to think of it, if my O2 sensor was picking up that it was running rich the whole time, it was probably trying to lean everything back out, when it was a leak causing the trouble the whole time...blah...maybe only good can come of this
