I literally just put this same carb on today and I have the same dieseling problem, never had it with the old Edelbrock. I will definitely look into that screw! Thank you!
Nice bro I hope that’s what my problem is I bought a boat last year end of summer and it is dieseling, something fierce like it will do it up to at least for a minute after the motor shuts off after running for a while and doesn’t sound good to see the motor at all and it is a elderbrock carburetor and intake so 🤞
Once the car is warm you should tap the throttle to take it off the fast idle arm. If it is still on the fast idle lever, then you back off the bottom screw. To get to that screw, with the car off, you open the throttle and it will present itself in the front. Fast idle is important in colder weather to allow for warm up at higher rpm 👍.
Don’t really need to adjust idle speed screw unless warm idle is wrong with choke fully open. There’s videos from edelbrock about adjusting fast idle screw. Hope this helps!
I might be able to help you with some of these things. Not a criticism, but those idle mixture screws usually need to be facing the same direction. Like both pointing to 2:00 not one at 3 and the other 5. They control idle mixture as you know for left and right banks of the idle circuit. I have a ZZ5 spec engine and I love this carb. Had to lean it out and use 68x57 rods and .098 primary and .095 secondary jets. Best piece of advice - Get a regulator Edelbrocks don't like much more if any above 5.5 psi of fuel, then it pisses past the needles and seats and you'll never lean it out enough. Hit me back, I've tuned a few of these 1906s particularly and love em.
@@Ididdoit yes, sir my problem wasn’t exactly the same as his but when checking that stuff I found the spring catching and causing the problem. Moved the spring to where it didn’t catch and problems solved.
I did buy a new set of throttle return springs after this video, they are a lot stronger and definitely helped, I haven't had a problem with dieseling since backing off that screw and getting the new spring, I'm no professional by any means
Good explanation. Thanks for taking the time to record this.

Dude thanks man,having same problem after a full cleaning n I did mess with that fast idle .... thanks again.
YES! This is exactly the problem! Many many thanks, friend!

Email?
Can you make a video about how you installed the solenoid.
Thank you bro
Bro you saved me some money the shop told me 375 to fix it but my nigga you saved a mf 💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💯
💪🏻 thanks bro!
❤
I have the exact same carb and problem. Going to try this right now. Nothing else is working…
Just checked, and I had a throttle return spring, catching on that choke linkage.
@@1mattbutchdid it fix the problem

wouldn't a $3 set of return springs worked as well?

How did you wire the solenoid?
