Erratic Carb at idle
GUYS, I feel like slapping the STUPID right out of me. After pranking with this thing on & off for 2 weeks I finally discovered the Air cleaner gasket has a tear in it. I taped that gasket together and its runs/idles perfect. All this after I replaced all vacuum lines new plugs & wiring. Goes...- Hack Richards

Erratic Carb at idle
Replaced all the vacuum lines. The last one I pulled off felt way to easy - - it was on the spark advance. I believe that was a leak. It started right up and while the choke was on I thought I had it perfect again. went for a ride and engine warmed up and it still has a rough idle - NOT as bad...- Hack Richards

Erratic Carb at idle
new air filter now and fuel filter is only 1 year old. I cleaned the plugs last spring BUT I do suspect maybe a bad plug wire. May just go ahead with a tuneup and replacing the vacuum lines since they are about 40 years old to see what happens. Darn thing runs so well though except for at idle...- Hack Richards

Problem Finding Correct Kickdown Detent Cable TH350
All I know is that the 2 that I have purchased already and returned were BOTH for a TH 350 and BOTH had difference size fittings. Both were too large. The first one was not even the correct shape and was huge. The second one looked like my original BUT was about 7/16" in diameter. The one I...- Hack Richards

Problem Finding Correct Kickdown Detent Cable TH350
1982 GMC TH350 hooked to Edelbrock Carb/ 350 Engine My kick-down cable must be a bastard because I have ordered two from the internet and both were too large to fit in the transmission. My old one is 25/64" (9.93 mm) in diameter without the seal/o-ring. The other end does not matter...I'll...- Hack Richards
