First of all, try to pour some carb cleaner down the carb intake. Make sure all cables to/from carb are well lubricated, too, then do a carburetor tune up. Quadrajets were known to be finnicky, this may be part of it. If that does not help, you may wish to run compression checks, or other methods of getting the engine completely checked out.

What is the fuel and air mixture screw settings in turns for a 4MV Rochester Quadrajet Carburetor?

A good default setting is 1.5 turns. After that you can continue to turn them out with a rpm gauge connected. Then gauge needs to be accurate. Some timing lights will show rpm. Turn each one out separately until max rpm is reached. Ideally a exhaust gas analyzer is best to use as it will take into effect engine wear.
