Thank you all!
THE POPPING JUST STARTED ABOUT 100 MILES AGO.
THESE ARE BIEKER DONE CARBS.(BEEN ON FOR ABOUT 1700 MILES)
FLOAT LEVEL - OK
IGNITION TIMING - OK
SPARK PLUGS - NEW
VALVE ADJUSTMENT - ABOUT 700 MILES AGO
I WILL START WITH CHECKING/ADJUSTING THE VALVES AGAIN AND GO UP FROM THERE.

A variety of things can cause this...unequal float

partial blockage of an idle jet, idle jets of unequal size being
used in the same carb, unequal air-intake on that throat of the
carb, sparkplug performance, to name some leading contenders.

"> HI ALL, FOR MY 65'SC COUPE. WHAT MIGHT CAUSE THE CARBURETOR TOGeoff's right. You've lost the tune on that cylinder; any of thosePOP FOR # 3 CYLINDER AT IDLE? THANKS, FRED"
things are part of the tune. But be generous, go ahead and tune all
four of them. The others probably need it too.
Thanks,

they aren't right, they can cause problems and you can't set the
carbs until they are right anyway.
