350x carb slide adjustment

[Fixer_Upper]

On my 350x carb I’m wondering what to set the slide height to. When I hit the throttle, how much play should there be before the slide lifts is what I’m wondering. Any info is helpful.

There should always be a little free play in the throttle when closed, not much, just a tad. It is very important that the slide can close all the way with no tension left on the cable.

Just for everyone to know, I found it in the manual. It is called throttle valve synchronization. It can be found on 4-10 in the service manual. You should adjust the slotted linkage to where the slide moves exactly with the butterfly valve. I hope this helps everyone as I have found that there is 0 information on this adjustment to your carburetor :)

... except for in the main source of this type of information: the service manual. :p
