I can still hear the graunching noises in my head as she searched the box for the next gear(That pic is 1980/1981 I believe...)
@Varty Yo - my quadrajet does the same thing. Set the idle to 750, and it climbs to about 900 after revving/driving for a while. Quite annoying.
Sticking linkage/cable, weak return spring, binding throttle shaft, timing change, ?
Does it stay at 900? If you readjust back to 750, what happens?
How'd you go about filling the dash holes? I've got some big ones to fill from guages someone put in. Think i should just cover it with sheet metal.I plugged 22 holes in my dash and roll bar. The saga continues (too fill all the mysterious holes everywhere on my 40).
I've seen some pretty weir things posted on here by guys talking about what previous owners have done but this one had me rolling on the floor laughing. (My buddy wasn't)
Helping a good buddy of mine. It's been approximately 3 years since he had the 40 running. We dragged his 1970 40 in the shop and started working on it. It seems he has a break in the wiring somewhere. I pulled back the speedo light console and here is what I found. Check out the wire connector!!!View attachment 1031073 View attachment 1031074 View attachment 1031075
This looks like some of the stuff I've been dealing with the last few weeks!
