  1. All still factory. Thanks for input
  2. Looking for help on my volt gauge not working. Needle just stays at 10 amp it looks like. Anyone got a fix for this? Thanks!
  3. QJ's get a bad rap. I've always had good luck with them if they are tuned correctly and save on gas! Just as good as any holley or Edelbrock IMO.

    Question

    Thanks for the advice guys. Found spark plug wire #3 under the ac compressor not plugged in all the way. Needed small push to clip in. Always start with the basics I say but didn't do in this case ugh. Lesson learned!

    Question

    It's getting plenty of gas down the carb. I can't see or hear a vacuum leak. Tighten carb screws slightly. I adjusted it by ear. But the car ran that way before I touched the carb. It starts to cut out on heavy accel only.

    Question

    Thanks for the replies. Hei distributor,stock 402 engine. What I did was remove some pulleys (to paint),took smog pump/diverter valve off and hoses.Blocked off the check valves (until I figure out what I'm going to do). Had the carb rebuilt (shop) and reinstalled everything. I've checked the timing which is between 10-12 degrees. Adjusted the carb a little richer (thought maybe to lean). All vacuum hoses are connected. Car ran fine before this so I am lost. Just sputters/pops on drivers side bank when I start to get into the pedal.

    Question

    When putting the pulley back onto crankshaft and tightening it,the crank moved a few times. Will that offset my timing in the car? It idles great and revs up fine in park. But when I step into it it sputters and pops in exhaust system. Any feedback would help. Thanks!

  10. I need to block the check valves off from the exhaust manifolds until I figure out what I'm going to do. Any suggestions for a temp fix?
  11. Stay as stock as possible. GM did great job making the car look that way.
  12. Where is that relay located for the high setting for the blower motor? Thanks!
  13. Hello everyone! Glad to be in the group!

      I have a 72 Monte 402 BB. It has the metal tag on the side of the transmission (TH400) C 70 A 259 A on it. Don't know what the A means and if 70 means the year? Thanks for any input!
