you are right! after getting my little RV out of the mud last year(managed to throttle it out), spent night #2 up the road that heads northish...
right, but if you watch videos of people recovering their stuff from the pits, they were still driving on the salt crust. maybe it was a mess...
I'd be willing to bet it's not fine. I mean, I'm sure it's dried out, just don't think it's as smooth as it used to be. all this stuff and much...
Anyone know the condition of The Bend? last year was a disaster out there, and the mud flats at the bend got seriously torn up. most everyone who...
He'd park at the Firestone every so often. never opened his hood though I just googled Billy Hall and see where he passed in 2008. RIP Billy!
I was there just about every Friday and Saturday from 77 to 80, had a white 69 Roadrunner. Good times!
Yeah, that dude watches everybody. My son and I were looking at some junk alongside what appeared to be an old phone company building. that guy...
I bet that was something else. too bad there's no pictures (?)
there's more than just the museum at the old Wendover Army Airfield. there are old original collapsing barracks, and many of the other buildings...
My son and I made the road trip to Bonneville and saw the 640 run. Chatted with some of the team members and got a t-shirt. Congrats on an epic...
Thanks, I was able to get the feed from this link!
Can anyone please post the current live audio link? I just got home from the Bonneville and want to follow the events as they unfold.
I love this thread, and the stories. Here's mine I was born in '61, my grandfather on mom's side always owned a gas station and had...
your post got me on the right track, Thanks!
well, I finally figured it out!!! It was that damn glass fuel filter between the pump and the carb. the black ring is a square cut oring isolator...
trying to find a cheap one now to confirm. thanks for the sanity check
New out of the box. The carb that was on it when I towed it home from the ranch was a Carter Performance series AFB that I rebuilt chasing the...
Quite possible. gonna try and look at it with a light and mirror pulled pump, eccentric has shiny line down the middle, and maybe a couple...
ok, exhaust not plugged got a carb spacer and installed it removed wire from ignition switch to coil, ran hotwire from battery to + side of coil....
Starts running bad after driving with points or PTX. I am running suppression wires though. things I haven't ruled out yet: fuel pump eccentric...
Yeah, well thanks for the replies, I hope I'm gonna get it narrowed down. running out of things to try. I still have the old coil, may swap that...
That was a thought I had too I swapped out the Stant locking cap that is supposed to be vented with the known/marked vented cap from my '64 Comet....
Well, it ran no different after I swapped the points out to the ignitor. it's part# 1281. no I, II, or III the coil is just an O'really 12V coil...
I'll have to check the resistance on the coil, and will just remove the resistor wire if it's got 1.5 ohms, which it probably does.
No, mechanical choke is wide open
I saved this truck from rotting away in a field, about 2 years ago. 292 did not run, and I went through the whole routine to make it run...fuel...
One more breath of life to this thread... I saved my '62 longbed Unibody from death in a field about a year and a half ago. I have very little...
