Having problems with this 750 carb not ideling down after warm up period....... I can open the hood hit the linkage then it goes to ideal...... get back in and drive 15 miles then it sticks again! Any ideals? Any help would be helpful!:disturbed: this is a new carb!
 
Electric choke! Its stuck on hi ideal........ nothing binding as I move it freely with my hand....... do I need to adjust the electric choke?
 
Definitely back off on that choke adjustment. I tweaked mine a dozen times till I got it just right.
The Edelbrock manual says to adjust the choke plate to a .100 gap when cold, but I found about double that seems to work better for me. Be sure to back off the high idle screw before adjusting the choke, and then set your high idle after the choke is set.

Make sure that the big screw that goes through the idle cam linkage in to the base is tight. If it's loose or backs out that can mess it up.
 
I suppose after 8 years, I should get around to hooking up my choke.....
