Suspension on 63 cdv
Hi all. my 63 has developed squeaks and creaks recently. I took a look at the ball joints and associated rubber parts, and they do look a bit worn. I have replaced shocks in last year or so. When I bounce the front ends, you can hear the squeak and "feel" the squeak when you put your hand on the upper control arm. I put some oil on them to try and settle it down for temporary relief. I feel like Uncle Buck riding around with the squeek at stop lights!! the prior owners that had the car…See More

over the last 6 months, I have noticed on my head lights, with the eye thing disengaged. when I run my brights, they seem to run fine, clicking back and forth to low and high, its fine. then, after about 10 minutes, it goes from bright to dim, on its own, no oncoming traffic, just clicks to low. and wont allow a return to bright, I can hit it, and it will click to bright but immediately go back to dim. if I run at dim for 10 minutes or so, I can then go back to bright, and it will stay…See More

Edelbrock Carb Block off Plates
Posted by Chase on March 12, 2025 at 2:05pm 13 Comments 0 Likes
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?
