Hesitation off idle
On my '77 cutlass, 350 with a quadrajet. Tuned up this weekend, inspected carburetor but didn't attempt to adjust it yet. The accelerator pump works, I think the idle may be low, I didn't check it but should have but it sounds like about 800 rpm in park. Could that be it? I know the solution would be to just re-build the carburetor which I will in the future but, for now, any adjustment or repair ideas in the meantime? Idle circuit works well, power circuit works well, secondaries come in smooth. For those who aren't familiar, 39,000 mile car, rarely driven, probably has some long storage issues.
edit: I checked the numbers on the carb, it is accurate for a 1976 Oldsmobile so I suspect it is original. Not electronic.
