1.8 engine rebuilt by me.New Weber IDF's from CB Performance.
Engine is being bench run
Fuel pressure 3.0lb,even tried a little less at one point.
Good strong spark all around
Timing is on.
No gas in idle circuit cylinders #1 & 4
Mixture screws on this carb have no effect
took apart carb,blew air through idle jet passages
double checked float height.
all good.
Compression good
engine has a few hours on it
Finally I swapped carbs
Problem follows the carb
Now #2 & 3 not "participating"

air correction 2.00
emulsion tubeF-11
Main 1.15
Idle .50
Venturi 28mm

Only thing I can think here is that the actual casting is defective internally?
Seems far fetched
Am I missing something?
not sure what I can do except return carb to CB Performance
Would rather not do this
Please advise
