Had to make a run into Carlton (which was pretty much so a waste), then head south and stop by the farm on the way home. Then the dogs and I had a discussion on why it is a good thing they spend some time in the in the back yard and/or their nice insulated dog houses.
Since one dog is laying at my feet and the other is in front of the fire, I guess you can guess as to who came out on top in that conversation.

You might need to take that thing out behind the barn and put it out of your misery....or break down and buy a new carb.

It's running well enough to reliably drive 82 miles every day..........just not thrilled with idle, and seem to have lost some power.
I did not have near enough time to dial in the carb, and I still need that throttle cable.

When I had the 87 with the 460 the Holley started leaking in a non repairable location. My son and I put a new Edelbrock on it. By the time we finally got it properly adjusted, I was real close to sticking a can of black powder under the hood and lighting it off!
