Good stuff Brian, I had to actually reset it on the new engine, even though it worked fine on the old engine, sure makes a world of difference in cold starts, have a great day buddy 😀😀
It’s on my list of videos to consider. Unfortunately I don’t have anything in my garage that would use a 750, but I might be able to accommodate it. Thanks for the suggestion!
Question about the AVS2 Thunder 1913 I have a 1980 firebird 301 and I found that they put 700-800 cfm carbs in these back in the day. I want to build a bigger engine but for now I need a new carburetor. Will this work? I have the rise plate that cuts the volume in half on the back ports.
On MY AVS2, I pump 3 times to the floor, and car immediately starts fine, but doesn't stay running. I find my self feathering the throttle to keep it running. Should I add more fast idle?
@MuscleCarSolutions electric choke working properly, no engagement with fast idle screw. Followed your steps, now starts and high idles properly! Thanks for your videos, they've been invaluable!
Great video, i have one question about my 1976 european ford taunus with 1.6 pinto engine and autolite 1250 single barrel carb. It cold starts fine and accelerator pump also works it doesnt bog when i suddently tap the gas when its cold BUT on the return to idle after giving that gas it bogs down and feels like its about to stall but then recovers and goes back to idle speed again. This only happens when cold, its fine once it warms up. Do you know what could be causing this issue with the bog when returning back to idle?
On my Edelbrock 1407 with electric choke I can't adjust the fast idle with the engine running, I can't get to the screw. I have to open the throttle fully so the screw turns and faces a position where I can access it. I have seen manual conversion kits that have a ton of parts in them, is it not possible to remove the electric part and fit a cable to do the job of the bi-metal strip? The problem I have is when the car has been left for a while you have to pump the throttle to get it to start, but that knocks the choke off.
@@MuscleCarSolutions No, it will still need to be held open at full throttle to get to the screw. I've never been a fan of auto chokes, a manual one would be much better. I think I will have one last try at getting it setup properly first. The car hardly gets used so when you come to fire it up after a few weeks it's hard to get it going, it's as if it's not getting fuel but the accelerator pump works but then it ends up flooded, think it over chokes.. It's hard because it's not my car so only see it now and again. The choke is set so it's just on, I'll watch your other vide.

Thanks for the video, I was looking for such a video, as online there is little info about the fast idle cam.
@@Moody.Trails it’s not complicated but it can be when the choke activates the cam and it’s not understood to why.
Thanks for the demo. 👍
@@VinoRatRodbuilds thanks buddy!
Good video as always. Thank you for the very useful info.

@@MrSHAUNE55 I’m sure you could probably rig something, but not sure you’d have any luck getting better access to the idle speed screw because of it.

It took me a few tries to get my choke set but up here in Canada in the middle of winter no car is happy with starting at -40f lol
@@andrewforster4974 yeah I’m not sure anything starts well at -40f! 😂
Oh my f100 starts but it's not happy for first few minutes lol
@@andrewforster4974 nothing can be that happy at that temp! Don’t know how you all do that day after day during those months.
The summer months make it all worth it for the suffering the winter causes us lol maybe I might make a video of the truck starting at that temp
@@andrewforster4974 those temps will be there soon! Ready for that cold start video! 🥶
Crystal clear, Thank you.
