Classic Car Idling Rough? Check the Power Valve

One of the most common issues we see at my classic car repair and restoration shop is a car that is idling rough.

One of the prime yet overlooked causes of a rough idle is the power valve on the carburetor.

We made a video about rough idling and the power valve.

In this short video, you will learn:

  • How to tell if carburetor is getting too much fuel (running rich)
  • What a power valve is, what it does, and where it is at on a carburetor
  • How the power valve impacts the idle
  • How to tell if the power valve is bad and how to fix it
