carb adjustment
I have an 86 F150 Str 6

Can anyone tell me how to adjust the carb?

How difficult is it?

I will regulate the fuel to air ratio, right??

single barrel carb?
2 barrel?

either way, there are 2 mixture screws to adjust, leaner and richer. There is also an idle adjustment on the throttle butterflies.
