Idle problems with 1980

Hey king80Vette!

That's great news. I'm sure you feel it was worth the effort.
Great to hear it is working to your satisfaction, and without a lot of money invested.

I’m taking it out for a long drive today, about 200 miles. That will be the test to see if everything is ok. Then I can put it away for the winter knowing I can drive it next year. The car only has 14k miles on it and I would like to drive it more.

Thanks for your help.
Steve

All the info here is good, but one thing nobody picked up on is the type of plugs you are using. Definetly put in factory AC plugs. The reddish color is the heat range is off. I don't use Platuim or Ceramic plugs unless it came from the factory that way.
