Post Re: 1 barrel rochester carb 1967 problem

If you open the hose to the manifold, the engine should speed up briefly then refuse to idle and die .

If you just pull the PCV valve out of it's grommet, it shouldn't make much difference, a little bit but not much .

By the time you're done here you'll have a good running rig and know how to make other folks rigs run sweetly too ~ not as tire burning as a V8 but in general use i6's are *much* nicer drivers plus better economy and so forth .

My Brother is coming Thu. or Fri., I'll see if he'll help me snap a photo of the HEI relay, it's very simple, I mount it in the ground strap screw just above and to the right rear of the engine .

This strap is often gone missing and causes other issues, poor lights, bad gauge readings, etc., etc.
