Re: Can Not Get Idle Down on Flathead
Ok. Both stromburg 97s have been rebuilt by Uncle Max. J just replaced the intake manifold gasket because the aluminum intake had stripped threads on the generator support on the front of the intake and had to insert a helicoil. Torqued to 28 ft lbs. The idle was still at 2000 rpm with that gasket. I put the gasket on dry without any contact adhesive? I will check for leaks tomorrow, been a long day dealing with this. Thanks guys. I may start a new thread for an update.
