[73coupe302]

So i bought a 1973 coupe with a 302 a couple weeks ago and the guy couldn’t tell me anything about whats been done to it. So its been driving good for the last two weeks and I replaced the throttle cable and now it idles high and over heats.

Have you tried the idle adjusting screw to lower the idle? Do your fans come on when it gets hot?

I found out why it was doing it. I was being dumb and So when i took the old cable off i never took that bracket off because i thought it was part of the carb itself So needless to say after looking at carbs on google i realized that so i took it off and now she purs i just gotta do slight adjustments
