300c



I just finished installing a rebuilt (original engine) in my C. The cam was 
ground to original specs by iskenderian. Carbs are rebuilt (cleaned,new 
gasket and seats),and all ignition parts new. The car starts instantly, but 
I can't get the idle low enough without stalling. It does run well at a fast 
idle. It runs for about 5-10 sec and then simply can't get enough gas to 
idle. Touching the accelerator linkage gives it a little gas from the 
accelerator pump and it keeps running again for 5-10 seconds. When it is 
fully warmed up, It is better, but not good enough. Turning the bleeders out 
doesn' t seem to help except I'm not sure how to do both carbs at the same 
time. Anyone have any ideas? The car idled well before the rebuild with the 
same carbs. Does the overbore with the new cam cause a change in the low 
speed jets? I'm open for ideas Thanks Vince
