easy thing to check for: If you spray starter spray or carb cleaner spray 
around the intake manifold and the engine speeds up, you've got a leak in the 
intake manifold. Most likely will be around the intake gasket, but you can 
often 
locate the area by spraying a little in different areas. Learned this trick 
from an old friend in vintage racing.
