HI, 100 RPM's LOL LOL who said anything about trying to run it at 100 rpm's.. My 466 with 500 HP TQ, Don't remember much about the cam other it was .516 intake .543 exhaust lift. with a C6 and stock converter .. would idle fine at 750. Since the original poster didn't know much about carb's I...

HI Geoff 2 Just curious how is 650 or even 750 and Arbitrary number when its a factory setting number? good luck take care be safe tim

HI, If you have not adjusted the mixture screws that would cause low vacuum especially if they are out of adjustment. good luck take care be safe tim

HI, Yes there's not many of us left that know anything about the older auto's. Oh and actually the idle for an automatic is 750 rpm's the extra 100 rpm's is so it don't die when you put it in gear.. it well drop to 650 when it goes into gear or very close.. don't for get to adjust he air/fuel...

HI, Have you tried adjusting the mixture screws when you've had the idle at 650?? at 850 your above the idle circuit and they most likely do nothing. adjust them evenly 1 1/2 turns out from lightly seated then to adjust turn in/out 1/8 to 1/4 turn at at time to smoothest idle. they ONLY effect...

HI, Is the idle still 850 or higher?? that could cause the dieseling in summer. Idle needs to be 650 rpms... You need to find the right mark on the crank.. Pull the #1 plug and put a straw in the hole and watch it while you rotate the motor by hand and see where it stops moving out of the hole ...

HI, have you adjusted the air/fuel mixture screws? starting at 1 1/2 turns out from lightly seated, then when warmed up adjust them evenly in/out to heights vacuum. What about timing? when watching it at idle does it move around to where you don't see it with every flash of the light? if it does...

HI, I'm looking to get more light out of my reverse lights .. the lens are clean just not much light from them... I'm looking at LEDs but there are two different kinds that plug into the socket.. Which would you chose as better Sorry I don't have any numbers.. I haven't look in a little while...

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, If its a Courtesy light it might not have power unless a door is open?? good luck take care be safe tim

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...

oops ICM

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, question was answered by 493 Mike in post #6. good luck Take care be safe tim

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...

by battery next to washer reservoir, with a yellow button or pop up deal?? Oh 75 fury Thanks take care be safe tim

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...
