I was greasing the zerk fittings on the back of the brakes, now my horn won't shut off and the pocket opens on right hand turns.
Alright, so it's not that bad, just seems like it right now.
For those that remember I thrashed my radiator going up Bald Mountain by Yerington last November. After getting that fixed I decided I might as well r/r the carb'd 305 for a TBI 350 and re-wire. And I had a couple of little foibles getting that all together like burning out a new 1-wire alt (didn't know they can't test those at Kragen), But it was running, and well and just in time to smog this month. I likee-likee
Then I figured I would try out the pre-'69 brake master on the clutch trick for extra play before I put everything back together. AND HOW. After getting the hoses figured out (master is 9mm so I had to dbl flare) it was working well. But it was too much throw, especially at startup. Here's the ugly... I must have adjusted it wrong, cause after I started it up and tried to move it I got to the end of the driveway before all hell broke loose.
I can see the fork is of the ball, and it looks like the throwout bearing is somehow involved in the clutch fingers and a color of black that isn't good at all.
That was Friday, and I haven't had the stomach to even go in the garage and start tearing it apart. I guess I'll start that on Wednesday since my last final for my Tuesday night classes is, tuesday night.
Is there anyone that has the pre-69 master installed that I can get some measurements off like the brake rod and slave rod lengths?
I was so looking forward to playing on the only 3 weekends I have off until summer school starts in June.
Thanks for letting me vent, the wife doesn't want to hear it anymore.....
