This is a very difficult to get item to get! Many have said soaking the existing one in kerosene for a few days will do the trick, have not done that yet as I am still trying to track down a new one. Wondering what the success rate has been with soaking it in kerosene, also wondering would WD 40 do the same thing. Would hate to ruin the one I have, which is original to the car!

@GregAmy , I was looking at your old post here about testing the decel valve and your information about a prior owner adjusting it wrong was spot on . I removed my decel valve and could not blow through it when no vacuum was applied to it . I loosened the adjusting locknut and opened the valve and the decel opened as you stated 16-17inHG . I want to adjust it but need a small clarification . If I am reading correctly I should adjust it until I can no longer blow through using my Mityvac somewhere around 17inHG correct .
Glad I found this information as I was going to start searching for a hard to find decel valve but now I do not have to . Thanks |

To be honest, I was looking back at that post with awe, myself, it's been way too long since I messed with those and I converted my D-Jet to Microsquirt soon after (see sig)...I'd say just go with that info. Sorry. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |
