The engine block number suggests that it is a 1968-70 Pontiac Firebird engine. I recently bought a Rochester Monojet #7040014 to replace my old rotten Rochester B carb. On starting up, the engine will rev all the way up and hold at close to full throttle. Nothing I can do about it, short of turning it off. After a couple starts that go straight to full throttle, it will start to calm down and idle correct for a second and then want to die. I have tried messing with the fuel mixture screw on the bottom and the bolt on the throttle linkage, but nothing really stops it from dying completely or revving up like it's possessed.
Now I'm not sure if this is the wrong carb for my engine, I just went off some basic descriptions when I bought it. There does seem to be a few extra ports on the side that faces the valve cover. Not sure if those were supposed to go somewhere else on a firebird engine that the van just doesn't need.
I have included a bunch of pictures. Some of just the carb itself and others of the carb installed. Any help would be appreciated.
