I have got a '76 340 T/T that I purchased last spring. This is my first sled so I am new at working on them. My sled starts up easily and runs for quite a while choked but it dies as soon as I take the choke off. I can keep it running without the choke if I use the throttle. How can I set the carbs to get it to idle. Thanks for your help!

The idle screws are the large screws with the heavy springs on the sides of the carbs. Start by turning them all the way in, then turning them out 3 turns and see how it idles. Turning the screws clockwise will raise/increase the idle speed, turning them out will decrease idle speed.

try adjusting the mixture on the oppisite side of the carbs a small brass screw also make sure the enricherers are closed.
