  • The plan started off with me getting my Carb serviced and made "new". Despite my plans, fate had different plans. In this video I also replace the bolts on the valve covers as well as the Intake Manifold bolts with new ARP bolts.

    Good to put a little silicone on the bolts that go into the water jackets

    I had the carb on my 84 FJ60 rebuilt and waited 4 days to get it back. I was happy with the work that had been done and the cruiser ran great. On a whim I asked the guy at Baxter’s what the cost of a new carburetor was, turns out it was cheaper than the rebuild. Questions are free.

    • @AndyKruseChannel
      @AndyKruseChannel  3 роки тому

      In this case it was cheaper to rebuild vs buy new, but not much. Plus, this one looks so much cleaner. :)

    Pretty straight foward stuff here. Next time rev that sucker so we can hear that throttle response. Good vids though Andy. Keep cranking them out.

    Great video. Been down that path.... Ended up replacing a carburetor because it was worn out. I'm at the point where I am installing a wide band oxygen sensor to tune it up.

    • @AndyKruseChannel
      @AndyKruseChannel  3 роки тому

      What are you using to read the Wide Band? Do you have an ECU or something that is making adjustments as you go, or are you making adjustments yourself?

    • @SmackeysGarage

      @@AndyKruseChannel I picked up a AEM UEGO wideband kit with the gauge. I'm planning on mounting it on the steering column of the car and not using an ECU.
      My plan is to make the adjustments myself and see how my carb tuning has been. I need to make adjustments to my Holley Carb to get it to run better.

    I had the original 2 barrel carburetor in my 1966 mustang fastback now 2 weeks ago I change the intake and carburetor to a 4 barrel edelbrock AVS2 it works great in my 1978 Trans Am it runs like a fuel injection but right now I'm having trouble tuning it in my 1966 mustang fastback

    • @AndyKruseChannel
      @AndyKruseChannel  3 роки тому

      My guess is that it was jetted for the larger Trans Am motor? Maybe the Jets and Rods are size for more air, which you probably don't need in the smaller Mustang motor?

    The simplicity back then, none of this ECU bullshit to deal with, like working on a Briggs & Stratton.

    • @AndyKruseChannel
      @AndyKruseChannel  2 роки тому +1

      Haha, I remember rebuilding a B&S back in shop class in high school. You're right, it was so much simpler back then. :)

    When I swapped to a 4 barrel carb and intake, I used those same intake manifold bolts. They rust since the intake is aluminum and I wish I would've gone stainless. :(

    • @AndyKruseChannel
      @AndyKruseChannel  3 роки тому

      Well, crap! :)
      This is good to know. I would like to upgrade the heads at some time, maybe I can do the stainless bolts then.

    In your other video you put the vacuum advance hose on the right (drivers' side) of the carb why?

    • @AndyKruseChannel
      @AndyKruseChannel  Рік тому +1

      When I made the first video about the carb that came on this car, the vacuum line was on the "timed port" (which is the port in the thumbnail of this video), so I left it there when I swapped to the new carb (in this video) because I assumed the previous owner had setup the car to be ran with that port. I later learned that the "vacuum port" (the port on the other side) is the correct port for this car and the way it is tuned. I have since sold this car, but my current Mustang has this same carb and I use the "vacuum port" on it as well.
      TLDR - I left it the way I bought the car until I tuned it. :)

    What metering rods, springs and keys are you running? I saw your comment on the old video saying it was too rich but you never gave the answer to your problem.

    • @AndyKruseChannel
      @AndyKruseChannel  Рік тому

      In this video I was putting in the 0.100" jets, 70x47 rods, and the orange springs from my older 1406 Carb. I did a video before this one where I upgraded from the stock sizes of the 1406 to these specific parts. This video is almost 2-1/2 years old and I don't recall if I ever figured out the running rich part. :)

    What throttle linkage are you using?

    • @AndyKruseChannel
      @AndyKruseChannel  Рік тому

      The linkage in this video is the stock linkage, but with a hole drilled in the end for a cotter pin since the factory clip that normally holds the linkage to the carb doesn't work with this carb. :)
