The air/fuel mixture screws meter the fuel that flows under each primary throttle plate when the throttle is closed at engine idle. Both of the air/fuel mixture screws control fuel flow.

Turning the mixture screws "in" will decrease the fuel flow and "lean" out the air/fuel mixture, and turning the mixture screws "out" will increase the fuel flow and "en-rich" the air/fuel mixture.

To adjust the air/fuel mixture warm up the engine to normal operating temperature and with the choke off at normal idle speed. Adjust the air/fuel mixture screws one at a time, and turn each air/fuel mixture screw "in" until the engine just begins to mis-fire, then back the air/fuel mixture screw "out" 1-1/2 - 2 turns a half turn at a time until the idle is smooth.

If you need a base setting to start with, then turn both air/fuel mixture screws "in" until they lightly seat, and then back them "out" 1-1/2 - 2 turns and then start and warm up the engine and then proceed to adjust the air/fuel mixture as described above.

Need to know what the vaccum diagram is on a 1980 Chevrolet elcamino with a edelbrock carb

It didn't come with an edelbrock so any diagram will be incorrect. I've done thousands of carbs and I can't figure out why someone would remove the Rochester carb that was built Specifically for this engine and replace it with a generic big name carb. GM spent millions designing this carb don't throw it away. Just sayin. I hope this helps. Take care.

How to adjust a carburetor

Sounds like your float is stuck and your needle will not come off of the seat. You need to find someone that is capable of rebuilding your carburetor or replace it.

have an accredited service shop do a carby check as it could be a float level to high, incorrect mixture adjustment or power valve /pump incorrectly fitted
black smoke is excessive fuel and a rebuilt carby, if done by a DIY, is always suspect

Need to find a manual for a rochester carb 4 barrel e4mc electric choke for a 1987 monte carlo 305 engine

You should be able to find or order a Haynes manual, part # 10230, for Rochester carbs at you local auto parts store. If not then faxonautoliterature has the GM service manual for your car and it will have a section on rebuilding carbs. Hope this helps.
