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)

Follow up to yesterday....adjusted the valves, started the car up and backed it out of the garage so I could start spraying carb clean to look for a cracked mainfold or leaky throttle shaft.
Get out of the car to get the carb clean and think "Man, it is idling good! Let's let it sit for a while." Let it sit, then drove it, then let it sit, idle still OK!!!!!!! I must have screwed up the last valve adjust, and got this one right!! I really didn't think it would make that much of a difference, but it sure the hell did!!! I never did look for the leak, went to AX today, the car ran great and I had a ball!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
