My Connie is back on the road!!!!!! She seems to running like a champ. I'll find out for sure in the morning.
First off: Thanks Steve for your help. It was a piece of cake.
I took Steve's advice and ran a piece of Safety Wire down through the center of the carbs till it bottomed out in the float bowls.
Just remove the black Carb Top Cover.....(four screws). Careful, it's spring loaded. Remove the spring and carefully remove the Slide/Diaphragm assembly.......the main jet needle will be protruding from the bottom of the slide. I removed the jet needle from the slide and wiped it off. Ran the piece of Safety Wire down through the Main Jet opening till it touched the bottom of the float bowl. (I did that a couple times on each carb). Reinstall the slide assemble making sure it's properly seated. Drop the Main Jet Needle into the center of the Slide......Make sure the needle is not cockeyed, if it is, it's not in the center hole. Reinstall the spring assembly into the Slide. Find the nipple on the inside of the Top Cover and place the nipple inside the top of the spring, Slowly lower the carb Top Cover down over the Slide Diaphragm assembly and make sure the Top Cover seats in place. Reinstall the four screws. Be sure to drain the Float Bowls when your done. Three more times and you got it.
Now I'm sure I got all the Technical stuff wrong but once you see it you'll understand what's what..........the Shop Maintenance Manual is handy also
.
OK, that was the hard part.
This is where I planted my size 12 in my backside.
The clamps on intake boots #2 & 3 were loose. I was able to get about six rotations of the clamp screws to get them tight.
So what really fixed the problem? I wish I knew for sure. I can say that it felt like it was sucking air giving it that "Miss", "Fluttering" sound/feel. I had experienced this before getting the foam piece placed right with Steve's 2 Min Mod.
No matter what. My Connie is ride-able again and I'm a HAPPY CAMPER!!!!!
Thanks for all the post in this thread guys.
