Need help tuning 86' camaro with 305 Carb
Hey, so my 305 seems to be idling high so I need to tune it, but when I went to go do that I couldn't get to the screw I needed to be able to reach. I think what I have to do is get a torque-driver, but I am not sure what size I need. If anyone can help me out I would really appreciate it. Any tuning tips would also be greatly appreciated, I have never tuned a carb before.

Good Luck With It.. They usually don't need to be played with to much...

Thank you. I will be sure to put this information to good use. My car also thanks you, but she's bad at typing.
