Re: Hard Starting Hot
I got the returned carburetor installed this morning. I have to say, it's much easier to get her to run down the road without her falling flat on her face. I think I got her dial in okay, though on Tuesday I'll have my shop take a look (she is going in to relook at my rear end leak). The difference is night and day but it is apparent I am no carburetor tuner. This is even with my fancy timing light (to watch for max idle) and vacuum gauge (to watch for max vacuum)!
With that said, I still have these problems:
Seems the "whistling" would be a air leak, which in turn allows the engine to still idle, even though the throttle is fully closed. Edit: From Mark @QuadraJet Power Quote:
