wish I had seen you there...it's been a while. If I pull the wire off the proportioning valve, everything works as it should. I checked and the connected when installed seems to make good contact with the switch on the proportioning valve. If everything works correct with the wire off, would...

Hi all, I have an issue with the emergency brake dash light staying on even after I release the emergency brake. Few buddies suggested I check to see if the brake cable was dragging, it's new and was not. Other's suggested it might be the proportioning valve or switch on the emergency brake...

235-60-15 fronts and 255-60-15 rears

you're 100% right, it should be 3.54...I was mislead by the chart...

appreciate the info but I'm a stickler for original. Will try and find the correct gear to correct the issue.

3.55 and thank you!

Hi all, can anyone tell me how to correct the speedo accuracy on my 71 GTX? I don't have a tach but when checking the speedo reading vs actual speed, I'm about 15-20 mph faster on the speedometer. Assuming I can change the speedo gear to gain accuracy? Also I have 255-60-15 tires that measure...

Hello all, quick update on the hesitation issue. I removed the old points and condenser and installed Petronix. Thought I would do that before removing the carb to service the accelerate pump. After I installed the Petronix the hesitation issue was completely gone. Think I may have had a bad...

I'll try to answer all the current questions. 1) it's a 4 speed 2) I'm able to adjust the fuel mixture to get 18" of vacuum 3) I'm using an original air cleaner 4) Timing was reset to 18 degrees Modest improvement but I still feel hesitation on light throttle. I will order the carb rebuild...

the gasket was stuck on the bottom of the air cleaner base. It's there.

going to try that later tonight if the weather holds...

Hello, my previous post mentioned a correction. I have a Carter AVS. I had also posted pics on post #26.

I agree it does look odd. Also my idle screw seems to be out a long way also. I did use a vacuum gauge to set the idle mixture to the best possible vacuum.

amazing response. I will take the time to read it over and follow the steps.

I was going to gradually increase the timing to around 20 degrees or whatever it could take and not ping and start without too much load on the starter.

the timing is at 15-16 degrees currently. I did try removing the vacuum advance and plugging the carb but it made no difference. I looked down the carb the best I could as the car is really wide and it seems to squirt fuel properly. Guess the next thing to do is the acc pump.

my bad, please see pics with air cleaner removed. Without reading the P/N's...the carb appears to be a Carter and distributor is a factory single point. Any help is appreciated.

Hi all, after spending most of the winter getting the Dana installed and sorted out, now I'm back on the hesitation issue. First drive this summer, the car ran great, after filling up with fresh fuel, it started doing the hesitation at light throttle again. I've changed the plugs and wires...

so just to clarify, the seller of the Dana 60 had the correct tapper bearings and adjuster when I bought it. I discovered that the passenger side axle flange was slightly bent. He sent me a replacement axle for the passenger side with press fit bearing. Now I have a miss match so I requested...

Hello Bob, yes I have a hard copy and the online copy of the service manual. I too would prefer the original tapper bearing setup but I'm have to work with what I have which is now trying to convert both sides to have matching green bearings. I'll review the manual and try and determine how to...
