New To Holley Carburetors

If the secondary linkage wasn’t hitting, you bend the little link between the primary and secondary throttle blades until they are straight up and down.

On the primary side, what you did is exactly what you do. That’s the only way I know of to fix it.

It doesn’t happen much with newer carbs but the older Holley stuff probably needs help about 40% of the time.

It should always be checked with any carb.
