    Fuel in My oil pan

    I have the tv made easy kit on it, so its the two gaskets that came with that kit As soon as I buy a real rubber strap wrench I'm going to change it again. I replaced the carb this year, march or april probably The gas cap has a vent, it lets air into the tank but I don't think it...

    Fuel in My oil pan

    took the old fuel pump apart today, diaphragm is in one piece. So either way at this point the fuel pump isn't the problem. I don't want to ruin an oil change if the fuel pump wasn't the problem. Diagnostically what else can I check before I fire it back up?

    Fuel in My oil pan

    Drained the oil and installed a new pump today. Yesterday when I checked the dipstick it was 6 inches or so past the full mark and smelt of gas, when I measured the oil from the change today I only got a little more than a gallon of oil out of drain pan. Completely lost on this one. Tomorrow...

    Fuel in My oil pan

    wont running it on manifold vacuum cause it to be advancing at idle? I've always been told to run ported, will see if that works. Thanks

    Fuel in My oil pan

    Friday night I tried to take old rusty out and the truck wouldn't run once off choke. I called it for the night and got back to it today where it still wouldn't run, pulled my dipstick and my oil level is way too high, also smells like gasoline. I have a 1406 eddie on a mild 350, mechanical...

    Throttle Valve cable issues

    I'll take a picture tomorrow but I dont think a deep pan would fit, it would hit the crossmember, a plug would be nice, but i still have to remove it for a filter change.

    Throttle Valve cable issues

    Is there any way to drop the tranny pan without taking off the cross member? I tried jacking up the tailstock a little but its still not enough.

    Throttle Valve cable issues

    I recently replaced my carb with a 1406 and have been having issues with my shifting on the rare occasion i test drive the truck. I have a 700r4 and i bought the summit racing correction bracket along with an edelbrock mounting bracket for the cable mount. When I tried the recommended...

    new carb dieseling

    Okay, dieseling has stopped. I pulled the timing back to what sounds right and checked it, around 8 degrees. I then tightened down the carb a bit more and loosened up the throttle linkage- which might have had too much tension and was cracking the throttle open. Here's the last thing: I'm...

    new carb dieseling

    throttle screw is almost all the way out and the mixture screws are pretty far in, its a new 1406 with off road needles and seats. advancing the timing to around 12 doesnt seem to make much of a difference. Do I need to go further? also, whats a good idle range for park/drive?

    new carb dieseling

    Just installed a 1406 on a performance eps 2701 intake after numerous problems. I put in the off road needles and seats and adjusted the floats on the carb before I installed it and am running a holley fuel pressure regulator around 5 psi peak. I'm idling around 850 park 650 drive and...

    cruise control linkage for a edelbrock carb

    I've recently replaced the holley carb in my 84; due to leaks and poor running conditions, with an edelbrock 1406. My truck has a 700r4 transmission so I installed the geometry corrector from summit. Now here's my question: when the p.o. installed the 350 and 700r4 he didn't reconnect the...

    Bypassing ESC

    http://imgur.com/UeSv7xv Heres a pic I got of the casting number. Do I need to splice the two pink wires together that go to the cap or are they fine as is? They both go to the same connector.

    Bypassing ESC

    I went to install a new hei distributor today and had the unpleasant experience of learning what electronic spark control is. I've already bought a HEI distributor and would like to install it, from what I've read I can just ignore the wire harness, my question is do I need to bridge the two...
