Okay, I've got my 2002 running again. (not driving condition, but running in the driveway) The problem now is that it won't idle. I can start it and hit the gas and hold a good smooth idle at higher rpm's. It will run very smooth. When I try to let off the gas slowly to let it idle on its own, it will jump up and down from 0 rpm to about 1200 trying not to die, but it will. (sometimes it dies immediately without jumping, 1200 rpm's or so to nothing) It seems to be timed correctly b/c like I said it is very smooth at higher rpm's. (about as smooth as it has been since I've owned it) I rebuilt the carb (Weber 32/36) but nothing seemed to be bad inside it. I have the idle screw all the way in. The mixture seems to be close at least, but I'm not great with carbs yet, but like I said before, it runs real smooth so it has to be pretty close. (right?) Any help appreciated.
Thanks.
