    1. If you have the curb idle below 900 rpm that’s a problem needing attention
    2. Change the sintered bronze fuel filter
    3. Blow out the idle circuits.
    Idle needs to be where the engine is happy not low because you’re trying to make the cam chop more. Let the cam talk for itself! 👍👍

      It's set at 950, the cam definitely plays a good tune no matter what, though IF I let it lug a bit it DOES sound even meaner ;) But no need to scare the children ;) Haven't literally touched this carb since we put it on the motor years ago so probably time to pull it off and do a little maintenance. Fortunately I also have some VERY talented folks in my corner that can help if I need it

    Intake testing? YES! We get a cool video with you and Bob, and you find out which one works best on the 350 HO.

    There is something very zen like when I clean up an old part in my glass bead cabinet. Just watching the crud disappear and the clean surface appears is satisfying.

      @@AutomotiveAdventuresWithAustin The manifolds you have, very curious about the dual quad setup, the performer and some variety of med height single plane. I don't know if the 350 will be able to utilize the dual quad, however the carbs you have with it may be small enough.

      Good because that's kinda my thing! Unfortunately some of these old things are a bit more frustrating than others trying to bring the back to life. I'll call this video a partial victory, but in the end I'll win eventually!

      Slowly getting there :) Was hoping to really hit it by Jan 1st, but will keep cranking and wrenching and get there eventually. More important than the overall number is the number of ACTIVE viewers, which thankfully is also doing pretty decently well.

    Happy New Year. One of those Pontiacs needs to become a David Pearson NASCAR tribute car and would be a perfect spot for that dual quad set-up. You are possibly dealing with a bad anodizing and/or porosity sealing situation. Will need to be chemically stripped.

    • @AutomotiveAdventuresWithAustin
      @AutomotiveAdventuresWithAustin  День тому

      The green one was my initial experience in the Pontiac world and it's something I have very much enjoyed driving and owning. Needs some TLC for spring time so it's back in action to look perty and go to car shows again. Yes the blue '65 F85 Olds is what the 455 Olds on the engine stand in the shop is for, unfortunately it's one of our projects so it's in cold storage for... a while

    During your walk showing us your Le Mans, did I see a 1963 Buick Riviera? Love that car, but I`m an old fart.😁
    Ever think about a ATM carb? Get an OMG model, Bill loves them, runs great out of the box. Hell Austin,
    I like ALL the cars you have, (in `67 I was 10, now 67). Very cool intake, can`t wait is it`s home. Can you use harder grit in the blaster on the twin carb manifold?

  • @SweatyFatGuy
    @SweatyFatGuy 2 дні тому

    I watched this after midnight, so happy new year to you guys too! I'll look at my Offy dual quad and see if its coated or not, if I remember I'll reply here or on FB. A 350 isn't going to care about the intake, other than single planes will wipe out the little bit of low end torque they have. A 400 or 455 with ported heads could see a difference, but most intakes will make roughly the same power as an iron factory piece.

    Q jet 455---- throttle base plate screws are loose Austin. Simple fix, pop the Q jet off the intake, do NOT !!! turn any Q jet upside down, ( this ain't no Holley) Always leave it top side up. Hold it high enough to get to the big philius heads butterfly throttle plate screws & remove them and clean both sides of the bottom of the throttle plate gasket areas and the bottom mating side of the main housing of the Q jet. Then replace the throttle plate base gasket to the carb main body housing and tighten the big Philius throttle plate base screws with a new throttle plate to main body gasket, then clean and replace the carb to intake gasket area & replace the intake to carb gasket and your problem will be solved with nothing more then 2 gaskets. The key is ------ do NOT / DO NOT EVER! turn a Q jet up side down or on it's side ever unless you plan on a complete rebuild, (witch it does not need yet) Them screws back off all the time when the Ohio temp drops. 😉 P/S, them dual AFBs are going to run you CRAAAAAAAZY and Bob Mcvays dyno will prove it. I got the same ones here for a SBC and can't even GIVE them away, yeah there that bad.

    Aluminum and steel don't play well together. I would have heated the plug with a torch and then touched a candle to it. The wax melts and seeps into the joint. The heat also effects the two metals differently as the aluminum expands faster than the steel which should help break the bond the two metals that seem to form over time.
