How can the cv be made to fit? there ain't no way, the holes half overlap themselves or are you talking about a cruiser cv from a 60?
the mini truck cv would be way too hacked up to have any strength
I've got a 74 thats sprung over with a cut and turn and now I need some gears.
I have both a 3 spd and 4 spd drivetrain.
Ive got an Extreme bends adapter lined up that is made to swap the 3spd TC behind the 420.
Will my mini truck CV work with this adapter? I know people have had to...
Which means what?
I have a similar question.
I have one booster on my current 40 thats about 3-4" thick and I have a 76 tub that has one thats a good 8" thick.
A quick little history:
I had a 85 mini truck with a cage, 5.29's, dual cases with 4.7s, ARB and a slew of other cool stuff.
I know have a '74 '40. 1F, factory 4spd.
I wheel a lot of slick rock, Moab type terrain and while I know the '40 will never be the wheeler the mini truck was, I...
I live in Southern Utah and need/want a set of 38" Sx's brought up from Albequrque, anyone headed that way?
I have family in SLC and/or dont mind driving to vegas or so..
Thanks
I've been working on the cruiser the past week or so, Mounted, plumbed and wired the york, changed radiators and mounted my CB and now I cant get it to start.
I might have left the key on during some of these things but I'm not exactly sure.
I am only using a test light but I do have power...
Actuate the linkage at the top of the carb. Your trying to get the butterfly valve to close nearest the top of the carb.
Mine did something similar, I had the ignition timing way too retarded. Advanced the timing which made the idle raise, then adjust the idle back down on the carb.. Mine is...
Is it possible to mount a 203 to a H42? IMO that would be pretty killer for a LC. 420/465s suck to shift and if you had a 203/4spd case doubler, you wouldn't miss the super low 1st tranny gear so much. that would be the way to go for me.. If you have more info, post it up
I had something funky going on with my point gap. i thought i had it right but i guess i adjusted it on the flat spot of the cam so it never opened.
It's working.. For now. I can deffinatly see a need for an electronic ignition!
Thanks guys!
Went to start the truck today.. Nothing. No spark.
this is a 74 FJ40 with the F motor.
Checked the spark plug wires, the end on the coil was not the best so i crimped a new one on. All spark plug wires are correct and functioning.
Checked points, pitted and dirty so i replaced them. Set...
I in the process of swapping the factory carb back onto my 'cruiser. PO decided to convert it to a weber which was loud and sucked.
Anyway, in my tune-up mindset i start looking at the dist. and find it has no advance on it.. vacuum or electronic.
I have a points distributor. my truck was...
Thanks for the help! i'll try the jets when i get home from work..
Knowing that it's not a real Weber or even the most popular sizes, i'm losing intrest quick in this carb. Still hoping to get it running better for the short term but i think i'll focus on the factory carb, i KNOW it will...
I have very closely examined the carb to look for cracks or leaks. I havent seen any Weber marking or adjustments other than on the choke solenoid.. Thanks for the ID info. that should help know what bird im chasing.. i knew it didnt look like the carbs pictured on Webers site.
Yes the...
