Thermo quad bogging badly when stomped on

[CFD244]

There is a measurement between the choke rod (thermostatic)hole and the base of the carb that needs to be adjusted as well. If the OP put on a thicker base gasket wouldn't that throw something off? Just spit-balling as the OP said the problem started when he or she added the thicker base gasket.

It certainly could.

FWIW, Dynoroom Tools has a new twist on the air door lock ring tool.
Thermoquad Air Door Adjusting Tool

And yes, you can and most people do, use large and small screwdrivers to do this.

Looks like a nice car, why do you want to " Stomp on it" ? Is this from a dead stop or a roll ? What are you trying to have happen ?

Why, a wheelie of course ! ,but I'll settle for the drivers side front tire coming up on the launch...
