Default Re: Engine stumbles on acceleration

You might have the idle speed a bit too high if the idle screw does nothing. Or the idle passages didn't get cleaned enough. The idle mix screw adjusts air not fuel.
These carburetors are pretty simple and it usually takes a lot of cleaner and compressed air to get them clean. A tag wire worked thru the passages is usually needed, then flushed and blown clean.
