RE: [T3] Idle weirdness

["Tom Cloud" <computerspace@hotmail.com>]

I have the same thing on my dual carb converted '69 Fastback. When I
was tuning it up and balancing the carbs last weekend, I noticed the
-2 and -3 designation on the carbs. The first thing that came to mind
was that I had an unmatched set of carbs too! Thinking that would 
partially explain why they were sooooo far out of sync. Now, reading
all these posts, I think that maybe they are correct. They do have
a definite left and right side orientation.

Still looking for an original oil bath dual carb aircleaner - anyone
got one?
