New (and ignorant) to rotary i got an 82 with a 12a and tried to adjust the idle. somehow turned too man screws now its running richidles like an old weed whacker (about 500rpm)!! Can anyone tell me how i can set this thing up and what the hell are these screws for :shakehead:

some help here with pics,,must get a haynes repair manual or go to library and check out one,http://pittdp.homestead.com/underhood.html

I have a haynes manual, and played with the mixture and idle (i think? the idle scew didnt seem to change the idle as much as i thought it would). Its running better but still isnt quite right. im going to do the ATF thing then get plugs,wires ect. as soon as the weather in pittsburgh gives me a chance
