Idling high with Small RPM surges


Will

Recommended Posts

Finally got the car back on the road with the new trans and driveshaft. Put about 300 miles on her with no issues. Recently she started surging when at idle. Only about 200 rpm or so, but enough that when sitting at a light you feel it. Yesterday the rpm bumped itself up to about 1500 when in park, and when I shut her down I got a little post igniton rumble. I saw some smoke coming from the driver side breather so I added a PCV to the carb last week and checked for leaks around the carb with starter fluid but didn't find any. Any ideas what would cause this big change?
