oh right. I tested the air injection system i.e. the air cleaner hoses. i have been running seafoam in the system periodically. which i hoped would keep it clean but maybe it just stirred up a lot of sediment. is there a particular carb spray that is recommended? I am going to get the timing...
cool. thanks for that. I do drive it a few times a month but that isn't enough apparently. I guess the first thing is to fix the timing, run it hot on the freeway and see how that helps and then go from there. the air intake seemed to be working although it wasn't very strong. this is my 10th...
ok, thanks as always. not sure how to test the system or all that is involved with that but I will look into it. as for the timing. it is at 12. will 7 make any difference with my numbers or is that a separate issue?
drove it for over 20 minutes before I took it in but i don't drive it often enough and it sat for a while until they got to it. . threw some good gas and sea foam in and drove it about 40 miles this week so that may be the issue. brand new air filter. no tune up before hand. the timing issue...
three years later and here I am again. christ. technician told me my timing is at 12 and should be 7 as well. wondering what the high HC numbers mean. the picture above is my last test. any thoughts? recommendations. this is my 10th smog check on the beast and it is always a different source of...
extremely interested in salvaging this summer with some 3 day trips within a few hours of sacto. always good to have another rig along. I am actually thinking of hitting the road tomorrow -late notice-but any recommendations similar to Bowman road, sawmill lake and beyond. not a rock crawler...
it is an other odd situation for sure. my new cable is working so I need to drill out the broken screw and get a new one in asap and all should be well. thanks for the advice!
How does that work? the grill is bolted to the hood latch. I just replaced my hood cable and am reluctant to close the hood without being able to open it again if my replacement went wrong. I had to unbolt the latch to hook the cable up and as an added bonus i snapped one of the side bolts on...
Any recs for a reliable and trustworthy oil change spot near downtown Sacramento for my 60? my old spot shut its doors and some places don't inspire a whole lot of confidence. thanks in advacne
cool. that helps a lot. not losing a ton of oil, just a bit more than it was before i got the bright idea to tighten the bolts. it is seeping but only in the one spot. i will test drive it this week and see how much i am losing before hitting the trail on monday. that particular bolt has so...
that makes it sting a little less. i was surprised how loose the bolts were so i thought i was doing something constructive rather tha destructive. I was planning on hitting some pretty rough road next week and now have to decide what the risk is. what is the torque on those btw? i dont even...
