Stock APT and idal mixture screws setting

(1/2) > >>

Mr48willys:
Hi
    Does anyone know what the stock setting for the APT and the idal mixture screws are. I live in California and need to pass smog. Trying to get it back to stock as close as possible to pass smog. By the way it is on a 1981 Chevy blazer 305. Also if anyone has any tips for smog and the carb I wouk love to know about them

Thanks for any help

Shark Racer:
Personally, I'd run the car on a smog dyno and dial in the APT at 25mph on the dyno, then set the idle mixture screws.

Cliff Ruggles:
Set the idle mixture screws for best idle quality at the leanest settings.

Set the APT using the "tip-in" procedure in our book.

This will put both idle and part throttle on the edge of lean, and should get it thru emissions....Cliff
