Clock Operation - Chattering contacts points

Posted on February 26, 2013 at 11:45pm 1 Comment

Trying to work on the clock out of my 64.  When I put a charge to it, the contact points chatter back and forth, sounding like a doorbell buzzer.  I don't see the gears moving and the points never snap back.  Has anyone experienced this?  Ted

Servicing the dashboard clock

Posted on January 3, 2013 at 12:59am 0 Comments

I found an old article I had printed years back on servicing our dash clocks.  The article states to remove the three screws around the perimeter of the bezel and then the nut in the back.  The back of my clock has a reddish washer (right in photo) that is pressed into the hole where the power cord prong extends.  How do I get this out to clean the inside of the clock?  Am I missing something? …

Edelbrock Carb Block off Plates

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

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

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?
