That picture where it is almost touching the valence...post #14. That was with the stock maverick suspension and 215/60r15 tires. BEFORE I cut out...
15X7 rims. Honestly, I DO think my new setup has something to do with it. I am willing to bet that the hubs I have are thicker than the stock...
Yes, the 2" drop did not help with the large 225 tires. No steering stops, so it will pretty much steer until it hits something. But even...
Jeez... No, new plugs about 20 miles ago. New oil about 3 miles ago, after the carb dumped. I pulled the plugs to flush out the cylinders, and...
It hits the fender on turns where the wheel points outward about halfway, then if you continue turning, the inside rear of the wheel will hit the...
There is cement around, but I don't want to drive too far with odd tires on the car.
Changed the oil yesterday before I drove to the alignment shop. Didn't see or smell any gas in it, but at least I have peace of mind that I have...
Even if I bought new rims, I was looking at torq-thrusts. 17X7 only come in 4" bs, which is what I have now. Don't forget...the 225 tire rubbed...
Hey! What is ya'll's take on putting oil on the blue gaskets before reassembly? To keep them from sticking later...
I have it torn down and soaking, rebuild kit is on order to be picked up tomorrow. I will go from there. If this doesn't fix it, then the next...
I raised the idle because I hoped it would stay idling better when I am stopped and in gear. I did not soak the carb last week, just blew it...
Here is what I ended up with. The 225/60r15s were just WAY too much tire. Bought a Percy's tire fitment tool, and couldn't get it to work...
Tore it down and rebuilt it last week after it leaked into my cylinders. It was nasty. And all the non-stick gaskets were dissolved and swollen,...
This carb has been sitting around for a while, and after a year, it runs rough. It used to idle at 550 and drop to 500 in gear, now I have it...
Gene, I decided against the 17" rims for now. Gotta pay my taxes and save up some more money before I get new rims. Working today on figuring...
I was afraid that was what this stuff was like. Looks good, but not going to hold up to getting hit with rocks, torque wrenches, etc.
http://www.americanracing.com/wheels/VN105/VN5151 Not showing the PVD, though. Yes...classic torque thrusts.
Three year warranty. They describe it as PVD finishing combines the durability of paint with the look of chrome to produce a metallic coating...
So that means just dump in 7 qts and go?
I agree gene...engine has been run recently so passages not dry. Using the largest filter i can. FL1A. So i only added another half quart.
