Holley 2210 / 2300



OK. Thay claimed it was a 2210 at Checker, but upon consulting the
Bible, I mean Service Manual, it is a 2300C (manual choke).

So It dropped in real easy and started right up. I set the idle to
700rpm and checked the timming. It was way advanced, ahh, I forgot to
remove the vacuum to the advance diaphram on the distributor. Well it
died as soon as I removed that. There seemed to be lots ( 9+ degrees )
of vacuum advance going on at idle. There was only one vacuum hose
fitting apparent. It was on the lower middle of the back of the carb. I
assumed this was the metered line for the advance. Am I missing
something or do I need to just reset the the idle speed and timeing with
it removed. I will probably "run out of" idle speed screw if I do.

Peace,
Eric
