    Retard = larger ICL number. 108 ICL is the most advanced of all numbers you posted. The R4 position, 110 ICL is 2 degrees retarded relative to 108 ICL.

    Bendix boosters

    I have read about those cad plated China ones giving trouble for folks after a couple of years. I sent my Bendix to Booster Dewey ( not the actual business name ) in Oregon ( now Washington State ) for a rebuild, super happy with the results. https://www.powerbrakebooster.com/services

    Need feed back about what to do 70 Bee front radiator support?

    I have seen badly damaged top radiator supports from an engine removal gone wrong, and I bet that happened a few times with these old cars. If it was mine, I would either fix those welds and grind off the not correct numbers, or probably easier would be to buy a new piece from AMD and weld it...

    Thermoquad secondary throttle lock out adjustment tag broke off

    Also.... If you are using the original air valve dashpot [ rt rear of carb ] forget it. The rubber goes hard & you get all sorts of strange problems. Get a new one & also a leather acc plunger. There is a place in Vic that sells them. I found them on Ebay, cannot remember the name. Set AV spring...

    Need feed back about what to do 70 Bee front radiator support?

    Your sides haven't been changed to convert from a 22 to a 26 and ONLY the top has been changed sometime with a "factory" part? And everything else about the car matches? In that case I have a very similar situation. Sometime very early in it's life the top support was changed with a non...

    Thermoquad secondary throttle lock out adjustment tag broke off

    63 Max wedge 3447 original jet sizes

    GTX John. Couple of thoughts on the 3447s. [1]They have the small airhorn & flow about 575 cfm. The Edel 600 carbs have the same venturi & t/bore size, but with the larger 5" air horn flow about 600-625 cfm. If the engine can use the extra airflow, might be a benefit. [2] If you remove the...

    Thermoquad secondary throttle lock out adjustment tag broke off

    By way of update - I took her out for a run and she seemed to behave quite well during the start and warm-up phases. No coughing and good steady idle (once I got the fast idle setting right). I did notice, however, that once I got her all warmed up, when I did give her a kick in the guts, I...

    We will have to call you 'Ignorant Bob'. Not from B & S. From Motor's Auto Repair Manual, 1966, page 51. The Editor is an SAE member, & muuuuuch smarter than you are.

    M1 on 440 with a TQ, made 600 hp. Had the 4500 version M1, was able to fit the TQ without an adapter plate. Also put a turtle in the plenum base.

    Electrical Gremlins: Roadrunner Dying While Driving and Idling. Help!

    I see a hose going to the Vac Adv unit on the dist. The VA unit flexes the p/up wires during operation. Eventually the wires break, may make intermittent contact. So if the VA unit has done a lot of miles, it could be the culprit. Test with an ohmmeter while flexing the wires. Look for loose...

    Bendix boosters

    Dual diaphragm boosters produce more output force than a single. Similarly, a bigger diam produces more force than a smaller diam.
