    testing the ignitoin coil-advice please

    I've been going thru the engine compartment in an effort to track down a miss at idle speed, the engine repair FSM ,page 8-7 step three , specs. the ignition coil resistance at 0.5 -0.7 ohms , the results i came up with were 0.9 -1.0 ohms . the coil resistance here is too high , will this...

    sorry- another smog question

    Sound like a wonderful thing to do , It's a frustrating thing when we can't pass smog. Share the wisdom, I'm shure it will be appriciated by many. I just oredered an EGR Valve and should have it in about a week or to from now and will post any results. (Also ordrerd that Inclineometer I...

    sorry- another smog question

    CO was .32 @ 775 rpm and .68 @ 2550 rpm pretty good numbers to me . Anyway, the carb. was rebuilt before smog at this time last year and the fuel level is nrite in the center of the window- I realize that this doesn't mean everything is fine inside. The truck sat in someone's back yard...

    sorry- another smog question

    OKAY! Just got home from the smog retest and ...........Yes passed with an HC level of 210 ppm ( limit is 220 ppm ). Just skinned by, I did back the mixture screw out as sudjested by rchalmers3 , - thanks for the handy advice. I will however continue to solve the rough idle issue ...

    sorry- another smog question

    Yes . I do have a rough idle, not a stalling problem though- my truck has always had a rougher idle than it should and never could weed it out.

    sorry- another smog question

    Let me give that a shot, I was playing around with the timing earlier today, strangely enough the truck runs much smoother with the distributer turned to about 12 degrees before TDC, I know that advancing rather than retarding and won't help my current situation but the old 2f sure ran smooth...

    sorry- another smog question

    No , they don't test for NOX here, guess that's in my favor. I'm real close to passing, I've retarded the timing about 4 degrees, at what degree do you sudgest satting the timing at?

    Doh! Spontaneous dash crackage!

    I was really pleased with the dash cover I got from Spectere, it fit reaaly well and wasn't hard to install, needed just a little trimming ( very minimal and easy ). Think the price was around $100.

    sorry- another smog question

    I was origanaly thinking that the EGR valve itself is leaking at idle - as it definatly causes the engine to run poorly around the 2500 rpm and higher , I've done a complete check of all the hoses for correct conection and checked the ABV system and there also doesn't seem to be any intake leaks...

    sorry- another smog question

    Okay went for emissions testing today, No , the truck did not pass, it came really close, the results were as fallows; HC @ 2500 rpm = 45 limit is 220 no problem HC @ 775 rpm = 463 limit is 220 a problem CO @ 2500 rpm = 0.66 limit is 1.20 no problem CO @ 775 rpm = 0.12 limit...

    sorry- another smog question

    Thanks for the replies, I'll get back to you guys in a week or two, I've gone thru thru the various componants, everything looks good, the EGR valve does have a small leek, did a lean drop on the carb. yesterday and ordered an oem air filter and tune up parts from SOR today- ......last year at...

    sorry- another smog question

    I've done a lot of searching thru old posts and there is a conflict of opinion as to which timing adjustment will help the old 2F run cleaner , some say advancing it is the way to go and others say to retard the timing ( sounds more logical ), the test is run at idle and around 2500 rpms - I...

    I'm getting ready for smog after many years ( and up grades) of sitting, Can anyone please tell me where I can find a direct bolt -in Cat?, been looking at E-bay and such and I can't get a response from anyone who claims to have a direct bolt-in. Also, how can i tell if my truck has...

    How can we tell when the brake calipers are shot?

    Jacked up the front end this afternoon, no noticable dragging and the the brakes seem to grab pretty well when applied, still I'm getting way too much braking in the rear. Yes looks like there is something directly under the master cylinder-though i don't understand how it could be load...
