Made a manual metering block for my 2150A carb on a 2.8. Now I need to know how to use it. What's the starting point for the two metering screws (full in or full out?) and what changes in how the engine runs am I looking for?

Damn good questions. I've never seen anyone make one yet. Read about it in the tech section somewhere. I just went with a different carb. Hopefully someone else can answer that question.

I would start half a turn out and adjust from there.

I have never been around one but apparently they need some air to work right so give them a little and work off that.

Thanks guys.

Too many more hassles with this carb and I'll just go with a bolt on Holley 0-7448.
