    Accelerator pump assembly

    Was curious about the pump cup on the Holley 1940 carb. Should the cup go all the way into the "well", or should the cup and spring be compressed when the bowl cover assembly is reinstalled? Hoping for the later, as I cannot see how the cup would fit in the well.I can send a message to anyone...

    The carb is off...

    I pulled my carb off tonight. Honestly, with my non-vast knowledge of carbs, and from everything I have read from you guys, it appears fine. The one thing that is odd, and this was my mistake, was that when I inverted the float bowl (checking to see if the floats touch the straight edge (figure...

    WTB 66 Mustang Shop manual

    I know you can get them new online for around $50 (and I prefer the physical manual versus the CD), but does anyone happen to have one sitting around that they would like to get rid of?

    Okay, one more question, for now. I have the model 1940 1V carb. that I rebuilt a few weeks back. Since having issues with the replacement of my radiator I have not had an opportunity to do a good run of the engine. I did crank it for a few minutes, though, and noticed fuel leaking from where...

    Found small rubber hose dangling

    underneath my truck this morning. Raised the hood and the other end was in the same tiedown as the wiring for the windshield wipers. I assume this must be the wiper fluid hose? I don't currently have a wiper fluid container, so cannot verify for sure. Anyone have any idea?

    Project I'm considering

    Last week a co-worker came in and let me know that he had cut my headlights off for me. This got me to thinking about a way to wire a buzzer to let me know the lights were on when I open the driver's door when the truck is off.Has anyone considered and or made this modification? If so, would...

    Okay, recently I noticed that my steering wheel on my 70 F100 looks like it must have been painted black at some point... There is green below it. The dash is green and the seat belts... Was my steering wheel originally green? If so, what is the bestest way to get that black paint off...

    dang electricity...

    Have charging issues on my motorcycle.Beginning to think it is my regulator/rectifier (converts AC to DC then sends to battery to charge). I checked continuity among the 3 yellow wires at the stator (AC creating thingy) end and had no resistance (not supposed to). When I checked each of...

    lens restorer

    Anybody got a homemade solution to restoring lenses on exterior lights... That stuff they are selling on TV cannot be the only solution. Thinking baking soda and vinegar would be a good start.

    Electric choke wire.

    Coming from the choke, can this be attached to the coil? Ben and I noticed this past weekend that an F100 had their electric choke hooked up that way. I was told before it should connect to the Stator connection on the back of the alternator.
