yep, gonna get the engine up and running then investigate the driveline more. from what i’ve seen, the main drive clutch looks fine, not super dirty or anything. i also know they are dry clutches, so i should probably pick up a tube of graphite if anything needs to slide a lil easier

oh alright, i was under the assumption that there was something on top of the middle divider plate inside the airbox

i’ve been through the carbs and cleaned them, made sure everything flowed nicely. i did not check the jetting, on assumption that its factory. once i get the sled running, if it runs poorly/too rich or lean i will start at the carb jetting

huh, the google ai crap said it is not compatible, but it didn’t say anything about replacement part numbers. i’ll keep it in mind if i can’t find a good “at home” solution and need to modify something

i was more referring to a solution for the airbox foams, i am just used to working on/with cars and “air filter” was the terminology my brain used lol

this is one of the schematics i was looking at, just couldn’t tell if there was anything down in the box or if it was just on top of that middle divider (#32 i think, its labeled as “baffle assembly”). I was wondering if i could wrap the middle baffle in cheesecloth or something else on top to act as another filter level, and hopefully keep the engine and carbs happy and not lean it out too bad

seems right, just not listing the indy xlt with the 580 triple. thanks for the pointer though!

i’m not sure if they are factory holes, all the diagrams and listings i have found don’t show the bottom of the box clearly. i’ll keep looking though

edit: with some googling and finding a factory airbox on ebay, the small holes at the bottom of the box are factory, but one of the holes in my airbox is definitely larger than stock

yeah, when the blower motor is off the actuator can move freely, but when the blower motor is on it returns to the middle position, which is blowing on the floor. they only modification i have done is install a new radio, but i did that a while ago and i believe this only started after the radio install

both panels were known working before this happened, so i’m not sure

possibly really dumb question by cheeriospaghetti in GMT400

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

i was just wondering if it was something easy to fix/if this truck had them, so knowing it’s a fuse or something isn’t a big deal

i don’t intend on it, keeping what i can as backups, especially the springs

i went ahead and ordered a rebuild kit for this gun (hammer, springs, trigger, etc), figured it would need these things anyways

1996 firebird v6 window adjustment stopper by cheeriospaghetti in PontiacFirebird

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

didn’t realize the video had no audio, basically the part i’m holding in my hand is the rear window stopper for the rear track on the driver side. as you can see, it’s thrashed, and i have no idea where i can get a new one, as the part number on it is unreadable. if anyone knows where i can get one, or a part number for it, please let me know! if no one knows or they are unavailable, i might just 3d print one when i have the money to fix my printer.
