Hey Matt,

I think that big screw that you are talking about is for adjusting the volume of the 
balance pipe.

There should be little lifting pins on the bottom of each carbrettor. With the engine 
idling you lift the piston a bit.
See what happens to the engine idle. It should go up for a bit, then back to normal.

It sounds like you have one carb running way too rich. Probably because the float 
level is too high or the sliding assembly is dirty.

go to http://home.istar.ca/~datsun/att06.htm for more information.
Good Luck!

Nick

Hi listers,
About 4 weeks ago i put my twin sidedraught hitachi's onto my 84 bluebird auto wagon (goes way way better now) & after mucking around alot trying to get everything running well it is now .. well it has been for a few weeks now .. running on when i turn it off... now my dad who has been mucking around with these things for yonks ... is going to have look at it this arvo .. but we believe it has somthing to do with a valve that runs on a tube that goes between the pipes on the manifold which has something to do with emission control & my dad says he has never seen it before ... what it is?.. it is a large screw with a spring on it.. & when wound down lowers the idle ... & up takes the idle up obviously .. but i was wondering if anyone could tell me if this has anything to do with the engine running on when i turn it off & if so.. what has to be done to fix it .. & if not ... what could it be ..hopefully dad can fix it.. but any help would be great .. also does anyone have any idea on how much a set of rear springs would cost for a bluebird wagon ... cos mine are buggered .. anyway ..any help would be great .. & i'm sorry about the long email!!!
