Sounds to me like a textbook tired accelerator pump.

Easy fix really.

Use the Edelbrock to keep the papers from blowing off your desk.

In my personal opinion, the Rochester is a superior carburetor for that mouse.

The Edelbrock is great for a car.

Not to great on a jet boat motor.

I have some great "tweaks" for that carburetor.

Hit me when you get the kit.
