Take off the air filter housing and immediately after shutting the engine down look into the carb. Is there any fuel seeping in? Or a strong smell of gas? Is it wet inside?
What carb ya got and how old and what shape is it in?
I rebuilt the carb (Motorcraft D5TE-ASA) a few days ago thinking that was the problem, but nothing has changed other than I can mash the throttle without her stalling. There isnt a strong gas smell after I shut her down, and I will check to see if there is gas seeping in after shut down. Oh, I forgot to mention that there is some minor popping from the exhaust while idling. Its not a constant popping, but more like a faint pop every 2-5 secs. Maybe it still is a carb issue.
