DUAL DOMINATORS ON BLOWER MOTOR-idle too high
#1
540/871.Dominators from a 900SC reworked by Chuck Nuytten.I or anybody else can't get the idle below 1100.All 4 idle screws backed completely off.All 8 butterflys are closing.They are boost referenced.Its a smooth idle but high.The carbs were worked on before i got them so i don't know what was done.HELP

Blowers will bend the throttle shutters when the pop thru carbs. Make sure they are closed and even. If your convinced you don't have a air leak the next thing to do is retard initial timing. Talk to your engine builder.

If the carb plates are drilled you may need to fill them,if you have 8 holes in them i would reduce it to 4 and try,if they are not drilled you have air leaking in somewhere,the new dominator carbs i have been getting from holley have really idled down real nice on na and blower application.If you cannot find leak you might have to try a different set of carbs
