<VV> Idle adjustment (more clues)

[Stephen Upham]

After spraying all of the vacuum connections, I found I may have a  
leak at the base of both carburetors. I am using 1/32 gaskets that I  
cut myself. I know, I know that could be the problem, BUT I was VERY  
careful to use a factory 1/64 for my template, I used an xacto knife,  
and am using premium gasket material. I theory, it should not be the  
problem. What I need to know at this point is the torque settings for  
the four carb nuts. I was pretty ginger with them. The slightly over  
torquing the base doesn't worry me as much as the top nuts and the  
possibility of over tightening them and denting the carb cover. Once  
I know that I have them secure and there is still leakage, I will  
move to re-move and replace the gaskets.

The readings on the (-) of the coil and the the coil to distributor  
wire were exactly the same.
