Recently, I was having some idle issues and found the vacuum at idle was very low. After testing everything I found the Idle Step Up Actuator had a leaking diaphragm. I contacted Daytona Parts to see if they had any, they didn't but said they could rebuild my actuator. I sent the actuator to them for the rebuild and was pleasantly surprised to receive it back looking like new. It looks great and holds vacuum with my MityVac. Hope it is pretty close to the proper adjustment when I get it installed.

Looks fantastic.
Thanks Russ. For many years I've read on the CLC board how good these folks are. This is my first experience doing business with them, I'm very pleased with the outcome and transaction.
After posting the pictures, I installed the actuator. After dialing in the adjustment, it works as well as it looks!
Clovis, Yes, it is the original part to the car. Rebuild including the return shipping was $62. I'd say it's as close to new as you can get.
Looks like new yellow/gold zinc coating too? Probably almost worth the price for that alone!
I added Daytona Parts to our Parts Suppliers Page.

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?

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 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

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…
