I don't know, but I believe so.

Therefore, my addition to this question is:

Are the metering pins/stepper motor/cancerous growth on the BBD only for
idle mixture?

I think if we ignored goody questions this news group would be pretty empty.
I've had my share answered lately.

The front screws are the main idle mix. Once up in the rpm, it uses the
metering rods in addition.

I 'think' the stepper was still in effect at speed by using the O2
sensor, but wonder about that. There are others here that know the
computer system, maybe one of them will chip in.

The carb needs to be set to best lean mix still, then the computer adds
it's $0.02's worth.
