    Flex plate/converter problem

    So what about the starter. High pitch whine when I start it. Which way do I need to shim it? 1993 F250 460 waiting for diesel swap-my 1st truck 1973 K20 6" lift-totaled 1967 F250 2x4-building a 460 to drop in 1977 K10 lifted, mildly built sb400

    Flex plate/converter problem

    So should I remove the shims I used? 1/4" of play is acceptable? And ya that's what I was afraid it was but I knew that torque converter was seated. Lol. Glad it was my own exhaustion this time. 1993 F250 460 waiting for diesel swap-my 1st truck 1973 K20 6" lift-totaled 1967 F250...

    Flex plate/converter problem

    Hey all i appreciate the help, Ok so the fix was actually pretty funny. Tcase shifter got bumped into neutral she moves just fine now and the noise going into park is gone. I was just so tired and still had a 2 hour drive home I wasnt thinking straight. To swap the plate I used guide bolts and...

    Oh ya I'm good. I was only going maybe 20 so I was fine. Just perfect conditions to get the truck. I swear that thing was cursed though. Lol Picked up a 77gmc and now I'm having problems with the flex plate/torque converter. Lol 1993 F250 460 waiting for diesel swap-my 1st truck 1973 K20 6"...

    Blew an inner sidewall on my tire going down a back road. Went into the ditch which would have been no big except there was a concrete water drain in it. Ripped the whole front end out and messed up the frame. It had been rolled before so it's just done. I'm waiting to finish some other...

    Flex plate/converter problem

    Ok so I picked up a 77 GMC with a sb400 and a swapped in th350/205. The guy used a flex plate off a 350 so it cracked and vibrated. I purchased the correct the plate and installed it this weekend. Here's the issue I ran into. The torque converter mated up fine with old flex plate but when I...

    Just saw this so thought id update for anyone else in the future. It was in fact bent linkage from the choke. Stuck open it never did again. She's totaled now but that fixed my problem. 1993 F250 3k in the 460-my 1st truck 1973 K20 6" lift-bright future 1967 F250 2x4-diesel swap in its future

    Odd hesitation

    I will look into all that this weekend but I do believe I found the problem. I was thinking it wasn't getting enough fuel but it looks like my choke was closing randomly and it was getting to much fuel, explains why it never actually died on me. I appreciate all the help and suggestions. Ill...

    Odd hesitation

    Ok I removed the internal carb fuel filter and spring. And I noticed my choke was almost all the way shut so I clocked it all the way open. I have a noticeable power loss but I'm trying to get it to miss or hesitate like before and I can't seem too. It did a pull from 40-70 in 3rd no problem...

    I'm generally pretty good with my trucks and troubleshooting. I've worked in a couple shops even. But this has got me stumped. I know I'm missing something but I just can't fig it out. 1993 F250 3k in the 460-my 1st truck 1973 K20 6" lift-bright future 1967 F250 2x4-diesel swap in its future

    Not sure if this is significant. I'm on the side of the road, thought I'd pull the filter inside the carb see what happens. I pulled the full line and it sprayed fuel everywhere. There was alot of pressure in the line and I don't recall it ever having done that before. 1993 F250 3k in the...

    It's def not loose. And I don't understand why it would run fine in lower speeds and not higher if it was timing? It sounds perfectly normal in lower speeds. I've never come across a problem like this myself. I have 2 fuel filters one in the carb and one before the carb 1993 F250 3k in the...

    Sorry so much posting. I was trying to keep it steady at 45 and it started pooping like crazy. Letting off more gas nothing helped. More gas made it pop more though. Just no power at all. 1993 F250 3k in the 460-my 1st truck 1973 K20 6" lift-bright future 1967 F250 2x4-diesel swap in its future

    After it evened out I had to slow to 50. Floored it in 3rd pulled fine to about 58 then all power dropped off. Still seems to run fine under 40 1993 F250 3k in the 460-my 1st truck 1973 K20 6" lift-bright future 1967 F250 2x4-diesel swap in its future
