I recently got an 1985 bronco II, when I got it it would start but would not stay running, and every time you tried to start it the carb would leak fuel. So I bought a rebuild kit for the carb and my buddy showed me how to rebuild it. My problem is that it still does not want to idle on its own, at first I thought that there may be something stuck in the idle jets so following some old school advise I got the engine reved up relly high and then smothered the carb with a big towel in hopes that it would draw in lots of fuel and disloge anything in the jets. It did not work, has anybody had this issue and how did yall fix it.
