Thank you for your tip. I bought the jar opener and the clock popped out easily. Now I have another question. Does the spade connector with a pinkish colored insulator on the back of the casing screw out or should it just pull off. After…"

Clock Removal
Hello Everyone,I tried to remove my clock today and couldn't seem to get it to rotate more than a 16th to an 8th of an inch. I followed the instuctions in the manual (counterclockwise approximately 60*). Maybe I don't have enough strength for that sort of thing anymore. I'm wondering how much torgue it takes to get it to rotate out. I looked at some pictures and have an idea of how the clock is attached to the bezel, I also noticed that the bezel is attached to the cluster frame by only 2…See More

"If it were my car, I would buy a newer version of the originals. Better output and you know it is new or rebuilt. Finding a NOS would be near impossible and it will have 60 year old seals."

Hi,I just had my Automatic Climate Control changed over to R134 and everything worked well but the refrigerant leaked out over night. It turns out my compressor leaks. I'm wondering what the best solution would be. Get my unit rebuilt, buy a rebuilt unit off the shelf or try to find a NOS unit? Does anybody want to weigh in? I also need to know the best places for the service needed or part. ThanksJeffSee More

Edelbrock Carb Block off Plates
Posted by Chase on March 12, 2025 at 2:05pm 14 Comments 1 Like
Hey guys,
I have installed the same Edelbrock carb and have done everything the same as Jason’s carb and intake project. In the spring and summer months the car starts, runs and idles great! In the fall and winter months on a cold start, the car starts awful and wants to die until it warms up. I have to keep my foot on the throttle until it warms up or it will idle just terrible and try to die. Once it’s warm, it runs fantastic! Whats going on here? I was thinking of removing the…

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed
Posted by Dave Fehrle on March 23, 2024 at 3:23pm 8 Comments 1 Like
While checking my Carter carb with engine running, I took the air cleaner off and there was a very loud hissing sound of air. I placed a piece of paper over the carb and it didn’t move up or down, is this normal?
