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? I would think the inner tube is welded to the CV joint with a rubber damper in between the outer tube that is visably welded to the CV joint head.

Reason I ask, Honda GoldWings also have a drive shaft that has the rubber between the inner and outer tube. The Rubber is vulcanized to both tubes and acts as the power transfer…

RUNNING RICH and how to adjust

OK so fiddling with the climate control means I have had to idle the engine for an extended period resulting in a large black sotty mark on the driveway and fouled spark plugs.  cleaned the plugs and washed down the drive but is this an indication of rich mixture and if so is there an adjustment for mixture on the carter carbys?  have not looked in the service manual thought I would put it out here for comment first.

1970 TRANSDUCER ADJUSTMENT

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

it does but I need to adujust it and  unlike the 64 transducer that had the screw

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!

accumulator dryer

Posted by CHRIS CARLSON on December 6, 2023 at 10:54am 0 Comments

Who rebuilds original AC  accumulator dryers for 1964 Cadillac? I have been on Classic auto air in Tampa FL wait list for over a year ,  There is one on Old air products web site that looks very similar to the original # 21-4214A but states it fits 1962 Gm cars, The one recommended for a 1964 Cadillac is half the length 21-4215A    What  is everyone using ? 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

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…
