It's still a work week!

Actually, I am so pee'd at myself - I had an hour, dashed to the speed shop, they had everything (new disto, air filter, small bits and pieces)... but I forgot my frackin' wallet. So instead of having a few minutes today to fiddle, I had to spend the time running back to get the junk.

The only thing I've had time to do is open the screws a quarter and drive it for about half an hour. Idle was improved, especially cold idle; drivability was better. Still a hint of the bog, but opening the screws was a move in the right direction. I will need to spend a good hour driving and ...uh... screwing to see if I can find a better optimum, especially once I have the new distributor in and the accel pump and secondary parts in hand.

But kudos to jhv48, the idle mix was too lean, vacuum gauge be damned. (Hey, it's always worked for me before!)

I'm trying to decide whether it's worth having a couple of O2 sensor bungs welded in...
