HI
Took it for a drive and blew the cobwebs/carbon out of it and It runs 100% better. going to have to idle it down and readjust the mixture's now from adjusting it while it wasn't running right.. Must have been the cap and rotor all the time...
HI,
I think I fixed it....:) runs much better not really missing but still has a strange note on the driver side exhaust. Changed the cap and rotor I have 8mm wires on order (Summit ). Didn't see any problems but the rotor pin looked funky. and the rotor did have some flash marks around where...
HI,
Thanks for all the reply's. I'm going to get a plug wire puller today so I can maybe isolate it. It smells rich, Sometime I smell raw fuel under the hood, I was thinking power valve (carb had just been rebuilt by a carburetor shop, couple of months) so it shouldn't be a problem, Haven't see...
HI,
Mines on the fire wall above the transmission sort of.. it was like 140* with a no contact thermo. rest of motor was like 185, to like 135.
trying to diagnose a miss at idle and at speed 40 mph. . Replaced intake gasket, new coil, cleaned rotor and cap inside, plugs look light tan to off...
HI, 493 mike,
that might be right.. I do have that option. Fender mounted turn signal indicator on Drivers side comes on when at WOT (low vacuum) and when the motor is not running and key is on.
I now remember I had it at a shop one time and when I got ready to leave the light wasn't working...
HI
Nope not washer pump This is the washer pump mounted under the washer jug,
it only has one hose going to it from the manifold. the two wires go into this connection and come out black/yellow maybe Lt. green strip and blue wire
Then it goes to this relay I think ONLY the striped wire...
HI .. do you know that TDC on the crank comes up twice to ONE turn of the distributor.. so at one time TDC well line up with #1 in the cap and one more turn the TDC it well be 180* out of time. I think the oil pump shaft is the same shape on it (like a rectangle) so the distributor could be put...
HI Got new plugs for it and installed them today.. the old plugs don't look real bad driver side at bottom look a little lean so I fattened up the mixture on that side of the carb 1/8 turn. Passenger side looks a little fat top set so I leaned it up 1/8 turn on that side of the carb. just for...
HI the NSS is working its sending the signal to the solenoid the NSS ether works or it don't it won't send a jumping signal.. ether the solenoid is not getting enough power to fully engage from the battery or the solenoid is bad.. all ends must be shiny clean to make good contact.. and the...
HHHMMMM I'm a little put out by some of your comments ..... you sound like a big headed shop owner... you talk about 80's car having some sort of computer?? I don't care mine is a 75 doesn't have one my 84 Ranger doesn't have one ether... Firing someone with 20+ year experience cause they didn't...
HI Professionals are very few and far between for our older rigs. Shops now a days if they can't plug it in to a computer they don't know poop. I've even taken it to a Rod Restoration shop, What a joke that was They couldn't even run a proper exhaust system, its drags a little and they wanted to...
HI I just might need to put in new plugs.. Don't remember when I changed them last. Daily driver, 23,000 on rebuild. but I get a purity good miss until the cylinder heats up say 30 sec. or so on a cold start.. I haven't looked at them yet might be a year on them. but was wanting a little cleaner...
HI. I'm looking for a hotter spark plug with no luck here Not sure if my number is right.. stock calls for an Autolite APP65 I've tried looking for a APP66 and no one has any.. I'm I looking for the wrong plug? if so what should I be looking for?
Thanks Take care be safe
