to answer your questions I have no power through all the gears (3 speed w/ od). I checked for vacuum leaks so i think i'm ok there.
As for the choke I have a manual choke set up....so i'm pretty sure the choke was wide open.
Would an electric choke be better?
The linkage is driving me crazy!
First of all no matter how much i tighten the arms of the linkage it will slip when I hit the accelerator. Also I haven't been able to get it to open to full throttle....i'd say about 5/8 throttle is all i have able to get. I can weld the linkage in place I guess but then i won't be able to adjust it at all. Also I don't want to have to drive around at full throttle all the time to get any power...with the fentons it's pretty darn loud.
I got so frustrated with this that I put my 1bbl back on, but I don't want to admit defeat just yet
so I'll give it another shot. Any advice on the linkage would be greatly appreciated.
