Re: Yet another carb question...

I do! I just went out and looked and it has 3 vacuum lines to the distributor. The upper one is the one I found disconnected. I just went and re-sprayed everything down with starting fluid and found nothing that changed. It seems to fluctuate between 800-1300 RPM and the idle is not steady. It'll sm...

Re: Yet another carb question...

I did notice my vacuum advance was disconnected and I couldn't tell you how long it wasn't connected for.. but at least the last 1,200+ miles since I've owned it.

How can I test if they hold vacuum?
Thank you!

Re: Yet another carb question...

It dies both cold and warm unfortunately! I haven't adjusted the idle or fast idle at all.
Prior to it randomly failing and leading to the fluctuating idle and other issues I've had as of late. It would idle around 850rpm.

Yet another carb question...

1984 here. Yesterday while I was driving and being a little heavy on the throttle. The car started hesitating and then began dying at idle. It dies at idle both cold and warm. It'll start and run fine and drive down the road with no issues and no misfire or anything noticeable. But once it gets back...

Re: How to Find Wholesaler Closeout Parts at RockAuto

I was able to find brand new LH corner lenses this way. I'm definitely going to be checking more frequently now that I am aware of this.

Thanks!

Re: replacing 12v outlet

If the fuse is fine, remove the bezel and check the wiring behind the bezel. It is soldered together and I have had multiple T4s with broken wires behind them.

Front crankshaft speedy sleeve installation tool

Hey everyone, just thought I would share a custom driver I had made for the speedy sleeves on the front crankshaft. The factory installation tool is too short to fit all the way. I wasn't able to find anything around my shop to finish the installation and ended up damaging the sleeve. If anybody is ...

Re: Added 4 new folks this morning

Glad to hear! I am always recommending this forum over the fb group. Although it's not as active as the page, there's a lot more factual information here. Plus the archiving is a ton better.

Re: Gambler SR5 - Introduction & mystery part

I really like the way you ran the airlines for the MA700. I think I am going to relocate mine like this when I repair the small leak I have in one of the air hoses.

Re: 1985 wagon (2WD) parts!

Wish you were closer! I'd love to buy the car, road trip it home and do the head gasket so it can live on. Unfortunately I don't believe I can get into Canada still.

Re: 1985 wagon (2WD) parts!

How are the front orange lenses? Both the set in the bumper and the set by the headlights?

Where are you located? What all is wrong with the car?

Re: New ole number seven, sadly he's getting put down.

Great story! Glad to see another one was saved from the dreaded scrappers. Sadly I have a feeling many of them in the Rust Belt got beyond repairable to the average person and they were scrapped. I always keep my eyes open and have ISO ads on Craigslist and market place to hopefully continue to scor...
