5 gallons of fresh gas and 3 attempts with some starter fluid (done before i saw your recommendation against it) and it finally fired up. after about 5 good minutes at idle i tried to kick it down but the RPM would not drop and it was making hissing noises, i cut the motor but before it stopped it made some sounds like it was pissed off with a bit of after-run. i used carb cleaner and sprayed all the linkages and from that point on it ran much better.
i am still learning the basics of these old 350 setups, any idea about the irregularities mentioned?
she needs a lot of basic work, i will start a separate topic on each issue in the forums so please bear with me.
BTW 7tone football and sam (small picture).......
i love the raised stance of your cars, after all the basics are addressed the first item on my list is to change the springs and upgrade the wheels to acheive the same look. i looked into this way back when i got the car but never had a chance to follow through. what are your spring specifications and tire combos
thanks for all the help
