RE: PV doesnt function at idle, but you are both right

I didn't mean to cause anyone think that the power valve uses the idle circuit in any way. I just wanted to point out that the power valve can affect idle and cruise mixtures and not just the cruise mixture.

If your carburetor has a blown power valve, the unregulated fuel flows through the vacuum passage right into the intake as was stated. I have had both blown power valves and bad power valve gasket installations cause the unregulated fuel flow. Depending on the quantity of unregualted fuel flow, the engine may or may not even idle because of it.
This thread, so far...
