I am having trouble with poor throttle response and sluggish acceleration in my '64 LeSabre. It has the stock 300ci and 2 barrel Rochester. I have replaced points and condensor as well as plugs, wires, cap, and rotor. I have the timing dialed in, but it still feels sluggish. I realize the 300 with a 2 bbl in a big car is no hot rod, and i have no desire to drive it as such, but i don't think it should have THIS much hesitation?!
Can someone give me the basic rundown for the tuning/adjustment procedure on this Rochester carb? What is a good initial starting point for the mixture screws? Is there an idle adjustment other than the screw on the throttle arm?
I have searched the forums for tuning info on my engine combo without much luck. Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions.
