    Vacuum advance diaphragm leaking, new dizzy? 2/77 - Stock

    Awesome links! Very ingenious repairs on the diaphragm. I just decided to order a Trollhole Dizzy and upgrade from points, but will probably repair my old one just as a spare. Thanks for the help!

    Vacuum advance diaphragm leaking, new dizzy? 2/77 - Stock

    It has all original smog components. For the low altitude version <4000 ft. Only had one port, so I think that single port on the dizzy is an advance. The high alt and later versions had two ports on the dizzy. Thanks for the info!

    Vacuum advance diaphragm leaking, new dizzy? 2/77 - Stock

    The advance only has one port on mine. I think they changed to two later in 77. Either way the diaphragm is rotten in there and needs replaced because won't hold a seal. Thinking of upgrading to the FJ60 set up vs a Trollhole dizzy.

    Vacuum advance diaphragm leaking, new dizzy? 2/77 - Stock

    My vacuum advance is leaking and just to replace just the diaphragm will cost ~$100 from SOR (if they have it in stock) plus shipping. I know SOR, CCOT, Trollhole, Marks Offroad all have replacement dizzy options. I am also considering trying to find a FJ60 Dizzy set up, but know I will need...

    Gun and Compressor The gun is pictured below, about $25 bucks from Harbor Freight and the compressor had a small tank capacity so I had to paint it in small steps, had to wait for it to catch up about every 30 seconds, but that was actually good I think to go slower. The pressure gauge and...

    Rear Bed Repaint Thanks for the advice guys. Got most the rust out, rust bullet down first, then a few good coats of primer, and then 3 coats of a strong acrylic enamel matched perfectly to Dune Beige 416. It turned out way better than expected for my first time painting with a gun! Got a...

    New Seats - Painting Floor and Rear I am recovering my seats, $OR delux seat covers and $OR foam. Expensive but the new high density foam is awesome. I sand blasted and repainted all the seat posts and bottoms. They look sharp. When I pulled out the seats, I got carried away and decided...

    More Pics of Rust Proofing and Undercoating. Going to do the back sil and under side of the floor boards. The rust is only surface rust and not bad at all but am just OCD on trying to preserve it longer.
