Thread: Car running too high???

Tweet

I don't know what the deal is but I've lost a 12volt current to my electric choke on my 1406 edelbrock.

Now she runs a bit choppy and a little too high in the rpms in Drive.. I've messed with the idle screw and such, whats the screw that plays with the front barrels flap? is that the fast idle screw?

I have no idea what to do in this situation, it didn't do this before i pulled the intake.

Sounds like you need to track down the lack of 12v to the choke. Broken wire?

Until then, I'd adjust the choke housing so that the choke is open all the time. It will run poorly until it warms up, but you won't be burning a lot of gas for nothing.
