Ok here goes. I bought a nonrunning 82 xs back in january.I was told it just needed a new tci. I bought a pamco instead,and installed it no problem.I have not been able to get it timed yet. At first it only started on full choke and shot right up to 4,000 rpms. It had been sitting so i got fresh gas and pulled the carbs and cleaned them,and also installed uni filters since it came with cone pods when i bought it. The exhaust is stock. Now when i start it,it still has to be on full choke but it only runs at 2,000 rpms now. I can push the choke in one notch and it'll kinda stumble idle at around 1,000 rpms. If i push the choke in any farther it dies.When i give it throttle it pops and stumbles and then catches. The carbs are running 132.5 mains. Oh i also replaced the plugs. The old ones were pretty black.Do i need to up the mains or something else going on here?
