I appreciate all the suggestions. This seems likely but I've spent the past couple weeks carefully going over every ground and connection I can find and I am still not certain where the physical...

Understood, right now I'm not adjusting anything until I go through basic tests of the components that I can. I have the dwell meter hooked up to the two pin connecter on the passenger side of the...

I got my CPR rebuilt and installed. This solved my apparent fuel starvation as the car will now rev under load. This exposed a new problem, where it is now extremely hard to start and does not seem...

It's looking like it might be a long time before mine is returned to me from getting rebuilt, and we aren't sure if mine is a good rebuildable unit. Anyone out there have an extra WUR they'd be...

The gas isn't bad, only sat for about two months while waiting on parts.

I have sent the CPR/WUR out for a rebuild, as knowing this is good will eliminate a big unknown right now. I'll report...

I can still rev it in neutral, there just seems to be a bit of hesitation at first. I just tried it again, fired up immediately from a cold start and settled at 24psi constant running. Shutting the...

I do not recall specifically hearing the frequency valve buzzing. The exhaust is so darn loud in the garage I may have drowned it out. I'll try to isolate the sound of that more tonight.

My car ran great until she sat for a while. Starts up from cold immediately but over about 2000 RPM or so under load it is undriveable. Car hesitates and acts like it may be starved of fuel.

One of my luggage rack mounting points is missing the threaded stud from the hinged portion and one black plastic attachment knob is gone. I've been attaching it with a bolt but if anyone out there...

Thanks, all! That was extremely helpful. I couldn't see where those last two 7mm nuts were. I got it loose and figured out my speedometer problem. The cable was toast and I'll be getting rid of the...

I've been trying to remove my binnacle however the last two nuts cannot be removed. The four 7mm nuts on the outside were no real trouble but the two 8mm above the steering column simply spin their...

Looks like I have one on the way, purchased from a helpful forum member. Thanks and this can be closed.

Anyone have a used steering column laying around? I need just the inner shaft with good splines, mine has suffered some "unpleasantness" and I'd rather not buy a new one if possible.

Thanks!

I played around with it more this weekend and still made no progress. The engine ran for 30 seconds and then just died, no sputter. Later it ran for several minutes spectacularly and then shut off...

The relay is from DMC and the car runs as it should with it for a few minutes or more. I have very little electrical knowledge so this is a tough thing for me to diagnose on my own. I keep checking...

I replaced the RPM relay and it ran fine for about a mile and then began cutting out again just like before. So the melted relay wasn't the problem, probably caused by something else that is the...

The connector to the relay shows no melting from the inside like the relay itself does. The fuel pump may be the problem as I have no idea how old it is. The pickup hose and sending unit were...

She started cutting out yesterday, and upon checking the usual suspects I found one pin on the RPM relay to have begun melting. I'm going to try a new relay, but are there things I should be checking...

I would be interested in a black pair, just about needing to replace mine anyway.

DrJeff, your tips were extremely helpful. I'm not sure how you were able to bend yours by hand, were they out of the door? Mine took a huge crowbar to move. I didn't even want to attempt to remove...

Good advice, I've got swearing to spare with how long I've spent on this thing. The neighbors might be getting worried. I'm guessing that it is hanging up on the front rail so I need to bend the...

Dave,

My car is 2975, an '81 but not exactly low. I will check my glass again but I recall on one of its many trips out of the door seeing one of those marks lined up with that image. My problem...

DrJeff, Thanks for the tips. I will try loosening the rails tomorrow and see if it runs. I'm afraid to use it too much as snapping off the track will eventually break the plastic glass carrier and...

Here are some pictures to illustrate the problem. The window slides evenly up and down the track by hand, however once it is connected to the regulator it pulls it at quite an angle. This causes the...

Okay, I am in need of serious help on this. I have installed the regulator exactly as everyone else has and it has caused a huge problem. I cannot lower the window without it snapping off of the rear...
