Until you get a unisyn or the likes (I use a vacuum-pump flow/pressure
gauge)
Just do as the manual says - adjust the idling screws till they just touch
and then a little more.
And play with the idle mixture screws one by one (screw in till revs drop
and out again till they level).
Also make sure the chokes are equally adjusted ( if not open them a bit) and
make sure they open completely AT THE SAME TIME (this is important) also
shake them around a bit and see that they don't flap closed once they are
open.
Check that the vacuum is connected to the dist. and to the left carb. Check
that the Jetting is the same check that the balancing pipe is good, Yada
yada yada...
As you can see I've been through a lot with these.
Currently running a NOS left carb and home-overhauled right one.
