Hey guys I bought an old quadrajet a while back, friend needed money. I started to mess around with it today for the first time an I noticed the secondaries only open every second time I pull the throttle. Is it suppose to be that way? dont think I have seen one that way before.

I don't know much about Q-J's but this might help.

Last, always make sure that the choke valve lockout is allowing the secondary throttle plates to open. Some Quadrajet models incorporate the lockout at the upper choke housing linkage while others locate the lockout at the secondary throttle shaft. In either case, the choke valve linkage keeps the air valves closed until the engine warms up. See Photo 9.
