Default Weber carb

You failed to mention if the carburetor is "used" or "new", if the Weber was previously used before you installed it...the choke thermostat is more than likely worn out.

Don't know if you got it figured out yet but mine had the same issue. Fixed it with a new neutral switch and vacuum lines. then the oil injectors gave up at hiway speed and it needed a new motor so I made a 4.3 chevy fit and work. Don't have any problems now.
