"Jordan,
C. Van Tune makes a salient point with the gasoline issue. Here in NY, we have one gas station that carries 91 octane NON-ETHANOL gasoline. This is the only gas I put in my 64 Caddy. I also add an octane…"

"Jordan,
One last thought. How is the fuel pump on your Caddy? If it is lagging, t hen the idle will be erratic as well.

I won't be around tomorrow to follow up, but just a few thoughts about your 64 Sedan DeVille. After rebuilding the crankshaft and eliminating the heat riser and taking care of the intake manifold, how old is…"
Troubleshooting drivability
Hey everyone. Last year I had some trouble keeping the Caddy running. A little backstory, car hadn’t ran in 30 years. Rebuilt the crankshaft. I had it running pretty well for a bit. Even drove it the 20 miles to the Back to the 50’s car show and back. After that it had trouble staying running. It would die under moderate throttle and only idle for about 30 seconds before dying. I’ve decided to install an electric choke and block off the exhaust ports along with removing the heat raiser. Is…See More

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed
Posted by Dave Fehrle on March 23, 2024 at 3:23pm 8 Comments 0 Likes
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?
Vintage Air AC
Posted by Chase on March 21, 2024 at 5:55am 0 Comments 1 Like
Hey everyone, has anybody done a Vintage Air AC/Heat setup in their car? I want to bypass the old vacuum setup and go with a Vintage Air Gen 2 model. Before I get started, does anyone have any experience with this? (Which model to go with, do’s and dont’s, etc.) It looks pretty involved. Any and all info/pics would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I would prefer to be as original as possible. Thanks
'63 Eldorado trumpet horn + 2 standard horns restoration
Posted by Les Eastling on November 15, 2023 at 10:34am 1 Comment 0 Likes
My son, unbeknownst to me, had all three of the horns on our 1963 Eldorado completely restored. We had recently added the Eldorado trumpet horn to the two standard horns and the sound was not very good... we had heard good ones so we knew something was not right... but there was not much we could do to get better sound from the 3 horns.
There is a restoration service called The Horn Works who my son…
