Not sure if I'm in the right forum so I apologize in advance if I'm not. I just bought a 66 plymouth sport fury over the winter and I've finally been able to work on it lately now that the weather is getting warm. It's a hardtop with a 318 automatic with 77k original miles. I just put a refurbished carb on from classic industries and did a complete tuneup except plug wires which are on order and a new coil which I just plain forgot. I just got it running for the first time in quite some time and it starts just fine but it idles incredibly rough but when I get into it a bit it smooths right out. I'm figuring a lot of it has to be that it just needs to be run and get the rings to re-seat. I'm a good mechanic but this is my first classic car and it's twice as old as me so undoubtedly there are some things I wouldn't think to check. Just wanted to get a few opinions on where to start looking. Thanks for any help.
