Hold on!
I have an 87 Mazda B2000 project. After a new head, new parts for most of the cooling system, new tune up parts, O2 sensor, etc, it runs ok, but the )@^* thing will not idle!
It has the Nikki 2 barrel feedback carb. (Right now I hate it worse than the electronic Carter BBD!) At idle, it has gas streaming out of the primary booster assembly. I have cleaned the carb, set the float level, and it seems to shut fuel off when closed. It will idle if you set it at 1500 or more rpm, but super rich, and will still die after a while.
It has an electronic bowl vent, a slow fuel cut solenoid, a coasting richer solenoid, and idle tracking switch and the fuel air metering solenoid. All now respond to 12v when tested. I swapped a B2200 89 carb on it, and it idled leaner, but the vacuum hoses did not match so I took it back off.
Can anyone suggest how to get the carb to settle down and idle?
I don't want to change carbs, etc.
Thanks!
