Acting like one cylinder firing lean.

I had a coustomer with an eddy carb surge/ miss changed out the metering rods that fixed it there is a chart with similar symptoms somewhere can’t find it but it’s out there somewhere,
I have already changed rods for a step richer. Speaking of the carb, drove it last night wot and my idle was 1200rpm in park. The secondaries were cracked open a hair but could manually push the linkage back to shut them. Should the secondarys be cracked open normally?
