hi guys! got a 390 carb issue

Post by sacramento_ford »

well i adjusted the idle on my 69 f250 truck ,was stalling stall due to l idle screw . but i adjusted the idle screw so high, that it tends to move a little bit when its in drive,without hitting the petal.. i think this is hard on the toruque converter, can u tell me what to do now since i got the stalling issue fixed, is there a another scew to turrn?? or should i lower the idle? thank u
