well i adjusted the valves when i got the car, changed the oil. checked the plugs. i went through the distributor everything looked to be in good nik.
when i put the car back together it ran better i drove it to town.. 30 miles and down. about 3000ft in altitude, it seemed better but still needed me to pump the gas slightly to have it accelerate up the hills... one thing i noticed is that the accelerator doesnt open theTB all of the way, it seems that there is at least another 15 degrees left to open. the car passed emissions and i drove it home, the car didnt get any better when it was hot. so the dizzy made it run better but not super good, it not going to stop me from driving the thing!. |
