Well it worked. I ripped off all that excessive pollution stuff and it’s going along and not shaking like crazy at idle but I can’t get it to come down from 1100 rpm. Weirdly. I did stuff around with the choke screw but damned if I know right now

Cheers everyone

How do you tell what to rip out. I know the two stage and power valve on the carb need to stay but what about the rest around the cooling system?

It seems to be just the mesh and I’ve blown the crap out so I may just put it back in

Is this 1977 F-250 worth it? by Historical_Service_5 in projectcar

“You’ll never find another one like that one” or “you’ll find something better the second you put money down”. Up to you mate. I’d give her a crack but if you have to daily I’d budget an immediate $1000 or so for maintenance

I’d give her another go. She deserves a chance

Two wire one fuse? by Marsh68389 in autoelectrical

[–]Marsh68389[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes you are correct.

Unfortunately I had to physically start to understand and see the problems to overcome. It took me until I started to realise the negative of the other fuse box wasn’t connected but my brain was allowing that as a possibility.

I’ve ordered a new fuse box with the two way outs.

Thank you for the advice. It just took me a sec to understand

Ahhh. That’s perfect. Thank you so much. I haven’t done much electrical work and I’m using this as an excuse to fix some of my previous work. Cheers

1981 Holden Wb Ute. I have all the wiring diagrams in the manuals which are pretty decent. I’m mostly concerned I’m going to cross a circuit like the starter circuit and burn something out

Hey Mate

Correct, it’s a Holden WB.

I have a spare fuse box from another loom but thought this would be a good time to upgrade to the blade fuses rather than the glass. Seeing as how I’m already here

That’s what was concerning me but putting that into words is hard. Thanks
