I don't know how those little tanks & lines in the gas tank work, but if it was a vapor return it would have to be open at some point in the tank. Gonna blow air thru that line on the charcoal canister & see if air comes out the bottom. Now all this hopefully will be a mute point when the vented...

Havin fun yet! Is the shroud strong enough to mount the fan to that?

Also thinking of putting back the factory oil sensor, I know the new one is working right at 20, I'm hoping the old is set for 7 or 8 so it doesn't light up at every stop, that will be a problem when the time comes to sell the car! Having the gauge to read I don't have to worry about the light...

Todays drive actually went well, didn't touch anything before I left. Oil press. seems ok now, holding around 40 at 45MPH, around 30 at 25MPH, didn't feel like it was going to stall at stops & oil dropped around 10 on the stops. Pulled the gas tank cap when I got home, no gulp for air today? So...

Gonna bite the bullet & try a drive today, just waiting on the parts now anyway. In the meantime my darn PU started draining the battery again, I think it's about a year since I had the wiper motor changed & it was good all winter cept for I time I just let it sit too long. Good thing Mark gave...

I will eventually, just all this crap is taking the fun out of going for a simple ride!

the non covered in grease part!

OH dang, a ways to go yet, that's gonna be something when it hits daylight!

NICE!!!!! It sure is GREEN. How soon do you get it back?

Called parts gek, that guy said the # I gave is for a 71, won't cross over Got another guy on their chat, also 71 won't go, so I went ahead & ordered the locking one, & that dang thing says 71 to74 , how could that be!

Was thinking after the next drive when I get in the driveway just open the cap & first see if it sucks my hand off & if so let it idle after I give it a breath of fresh air & see if it still dies out?

Locking cap is not that n big a deal, like 17 bucks, the other was 5, gonna call them later & see why the cheap one dissapeared? If it's no longer available I'll just get the locking one.

YEA! small victories are good. The haunting is all the little bugs the annoy the heck out of us, a guy that shot himself is a good candidate!

I'll probably end up doing that just before I croke, so I won't have time to enjoy it!

Holy crap, went to order the cap & it does not come up on their website, it was friggen there the other day, gonna call em tomorrow. They do show a locking one for 3x the price, I don't need a locking unit!!! So doing some mulling over how to approach this thing when the carb kit gets here...

Did that car come from texas, I'm beginning to think it's got the same ghost as mine!

Parts geek has a vented gas cap, looks like mine but has something protruding down the middle mine does not have? motorad # 16641-05842187 Like 5 bucks, I guess cheap enough to try it?

Ordering the kit now. I will pay with those first! Thanks!

Scanned the book & didn't see anything on adjusting the throttle plates, any tricks or tops on this?

Drilling would be my LAST resort. Will see if the book that came with it mentions adjusting the secondaries, that sounds like a safer & easier solution & can be undone if failure is imminent
