Drive shaft question?

Just curious, has anyone dissected the rear drive shaft section at the rear CV joint? How is the inner tube/rubber/outer tube attached to the CV joint head?

RUNNING RICH and how to adjust

1970 TRANSDUCER ADJUSTMENT

ok I have sourced a 1970 transducer for my 64 climate control. told it would work.

adjustment at the bottom this one appears to have none.   at 65 degrees its getting

8.6 volts but still holding 7 inches of vacuum - still too much for the power servo arm

to move far enough forward to actuate the mode control so the AC comes on.

any ideas how to…

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed

Posted by Dave Fehrle on March 23, 2024 at 3:23pm 8 Comments

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

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!
