Haha well... I just got in it. It was already warm from working on it before and...

NO BACKFIRES AT ALL??

I just floored it about 12 times from idle (450rpm) and it didn't backfire once... maybe my cap on the middle runner was loose and it caused lean misfire? I'm not sure.

I definitely knew that my accelerator pump was working but I just double checked it anyway. Yah there was a nice healthy pump of fuel.

What's the best way to keep that middle intake runner closed? That PCV tube with a clamp obviously doesn't work but I don't want something as permanent as JB Weld.

Lastly it still rocks at idle WHICH REALLY BUGS ME. So hopefully when I test the compression and manifold vacuum, I'll see problem.
