Carb problems
Have a 1978 F100 with a 351M that backfired thru the carb and had no acceleration. The distributor was stuck so we couldn't adjust timing so I have replaced that and reset the timing. We also rebuilt the carb but it still doesn't feel right. I wonder if I have the carb adjusted right. It was my first carb rebuild. How should I adjust the carb and fuel mixture screws. Go all the way in and then back em out? How far out? Anything else I might look for?
Thanks for any help..

Carb problems
It was by brother in laws and I always thought it was a dog but figured it was in the timing. I never checked the timing before pulling the distibutor so not sure about that. I did notice that after I reset the timing it seemed ok but then it died and started real hard so am going to check the timing to see if it changed.
