				A friend is having a problem with an indeterminate idle on his dual carb 503.  He has fiddled with it
 and gotten everything set by the book and it will do fine for a while  and then suddenly will drop rpms 
 for no reason.  Any tips are welcome.

				Look for a leak in the intake system.4 gaskets, 2 are under the tin.

				Hi Robert,
 
 One thing to check is the fuel pump. The fuel pump may have a diaphragm that 
 is developing a tear and allowing extra un-regulated fuel into the engine.
 
 Just one thing to check....

				Look at the carb sockets.  Any cracks, replace  them
