Any one got an easy way to do this?('72 2.0) Just took a quick look tonight, looks like engine tin will have to be removed. I just want to replace the intake hoses. Any suggestions for simplicity's sake? Brad? You're always good for a step by step for newbies!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif)

Brad - I have been chasing hunting idle and lean conditions on this car. I have checked for vacuum leaks everywhere, replaced all hoses, disconnected decel valve, cleaned up aar vavle per your directions, sprayed carb clean everywhere, adjusted valves, adjusted fuel pressure, timing, head temp sensor, adjusted TPS,blah, blah, balh. The car just seems to be sucking too much air. The plugs show a lean burn (white) and the idle hunts all over the place, cold or warm, 400-900 mostly, sometimes when cold up to 13-1600. I have the brain turned to almost full rich. I get some back firing when cold and once in awhile with light throttle pressure under load. Anyway, I thought that maybe I just don't have a good enough ear for finding leaks, so I might as well just replace all the gaskets in the intake path to eliminate that. I have not done a compression or leak down test on this yet, so I have no data there. Any help or suggestions greatly appreciated!!!!!!
