carb tuning help

currently have a 306 with a proform 750 carb. i cant seem to get the tune ruight. when you smash the gas at idle it often pops through the carb. and when u are driving and press the gas 1/4 throttle or more it stumbles really bad. i currently have a cheap air/fuel gauge that says its really rich at idle and goes lean when i press the gas. i dont know how accurate these are but i currently have 71, 76 for jets.... 75 primary air bleweds 72 sec, and 36 high speed.
let me know
thanks

Re: carb tuning help

It sounds like the arm going to the accelerator pump is not adjusted correctly. On my carb it needs to be touching at idle, with just a tiny bit of pre-load.

If that is correct, the 750 might just be too big, and the air going through it is going too slow off idle.

But I would bet the cam and lever on the accelerator pump need adjusted tighter.
