Of course, I should check for a vacuum leak. "Idles too lean" should always suggest that. I never think about that on these old rigs because there are no vacuum hoses, but even so a carb base gasket or intake manifold gasket could leak. By the way, the idle mixture screw has no effect on this either -- all the way in or all the way out, it runs the same.
