I'm running the Edelbrock 1405 600cfm carb on my 351C 4v engine. Floats are properly adjusted and fuel pressure set at 5.5psi, actually needle fluctuates 5-5.5psi. The problem: When @ idle and either left or right side idle mixture screw is lightly seated, the engine continues to run. Engine will bog down, but will not shut off. I was told fuel pressure could be high, but verified with a fuel gauge and all is good. Also float level not properly adjusted, but checked with 7/16 drill bit and all is good. What else should I check for? The engine should shut down right if any of the idle mixture screws is lighly seated?
Installed a like new 1407 750cfm carb and same thing, so what could it be?
Thanks,
