Well it wasn't plugged in backwards. I'm thinking of putting the old pump back in... At least it would be drivable on occasion with the old pump. Maybe the pump I got from Hervey is defective? It...

Pictures of the fuel pump setup.

Welcome back.

I'm running one of those $90 pumps off of SpecialTAuto and I'm running an SMC 410 5/16" check valve from US Plastics. I'll try to get you a picture of my setup tonight or tomorrow.
...

Well put the new pump in and it runs worse than before, so I am at a bit of a loss. I did notice there is an inline check valve installed, and because the new pump has a check valve, I'll be removing...

I've ordered a replacement pump (only the pump) to see if that fixes the problem. I tried running her a bit today and the issue was worse than it has ever been so I'm with you thinking the pump has...

Not the cleanest by choice, trust me. I've had a couple people tell me that the fuel pump is likely shot and I should just replace it now before it fails completely - I've been avoiding it mostly...

Well, after having another apparent breakthrough yesterday, she is still having issues. Went to start it up before work and she had the same problem, if not worse.

I have put together a video of...

Well gents, sometimes is the simple things in life that drive you crazy.

After hearing you guys discuss the vacuum solenoid and hearing about how easily the connector falls off - something clicked...

Despite having read your post at least eight times, I still misread it. I have no vacuum at the distributor advance when cold, but when hot, there is constant vacuum at the distributor advance...

And it appears that the CPR / WUR are working properly. I had no vacuum at the distributor's vacuum chamber at start up, unless under load. However, vacuum was present after the engine got hot -...

Thanks for the info. I think I just got excited when I got a response from the frequency valve being unplugged - this is a pesky bug in the system and a response after digging for a while was...

Thanks for the info nightflyer.

What you say about the injectors makes sense... I wasn't sure how these are mounted thus my curiosity.

I'm fairly certain the ignition system is good, I checked...

Well guys got the new "intake" gaskets installed and the vacuum leak seems to have subsided for the most part. The no acceleration issue seems to have been unaffected.

I'll be following...

Finally got some time to work on the car - they've been working us to death at the People's Republic of Boeing.

I've found nothing wrong with the fuel system - pulled the pump and checked it...

Thank you all for your suggestions, I will be delving in deep into this issue this weekend (or when I find the time) and I'll get back to you all with updates.

And thank you all for being very...

I thought about the fuel mixture being off but that wouldn't explain why it acted up out of the blue. I know there is a minor vacuum leak and the only thing I can think of regarding a leak is that...

Back again to boggart you guys again for information. Please be gentle, I'm still new at this.

First a tad bit of history on what is going on...

I had the hot start issue confirmed by myself...

Rear... my apologies.

And I have a purchase pending at the moment... I'll post here if it falls through.

You are the MAN! This is exactly what I needed - got my lights working perfectly.

Thanks very much.

Hey PNDC, I noticed that my license plate and bezel fell off (more than likely) on the freeway (405 N between Bellevue and Bothell).

If anyone spots this please let me know! It is the only plate I...

Hello all, I'm looking to purchase a license plate bezel with clips if anyone has any available.

Please PM me if you have one to sell.

Back again guys. Finally got out to work on the project this weekend and was able to fix some issues but found more.

I was able to tweak the door switches for the lights and "door ajar" light for...

Sorry about a late response guys but thanks to all of you for your input.

After much removing and replacing the same new components multiple times, I'm going to have to call this one either a...

I'll check out the angle drive and cap, thanks for the advice guys.

Glad to be here, thanks much.

It is possible, it seems like a defective angle drive would likely make it fail all the time though, right?



I'm out in Bothell. I probably should have...
