You make two fantastic points! I actually just found a bit of vacuum leak at my vacuum canister the other day, and snipped about 3/4" off the hose, reinstalled and everything was back to normal. I had started thinking of worse case/expensive alternatives but a quick close inspection of vacuum hoses revealed the problem that was making my car seem to not run as well as it had.

Remove the glove box plastic insert and you will have a clear shot to where it feeds the power servo vacuum diaphragm.

Edelbrock Carb Block off Plates

Posted by Chase on March 12, 2025 at 2:05pm 14 Comments

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
