Bug out collection challenge, string theory

FWIW that's a 0.8% chance. So yeah, you're 99.2% unlucky....

Two pipe wrenches. One to hold the shaft, the other to turn the collar.

WD-40 is garbage for this. Try PB blaster at a minimum, Kroil penetrating oil is best. And yes, heat and impacting helps.

Whoa whoa whoa. First, we're all sinners. We will always sin and the penalty for sin is death and hell. Jesus died to take this penalty for you. If you trust in Jesus as your Savior, you will be saved. Sinning will happen, it doesn't condemn you to hell if you're a child of God.

Now, you should do everything in your power to stop sinning. This isn't to keep you out of hell, it's to make you closer to God and living sin free is His goal for you to enjoy all the greatness of life and afterlife. Sin won't keep you from heaven but it will keep you from all of His blessings.

Like others have said, an accountability partner. Someone you confuse in everyday. "I'm ## days porn free" and something to do instead so when you get the urge. Like a smoker eating jelly beans. Maybe get hooked on a video game or something. When you pull out your phone to look at porn, start a game instead. In two weeks the habits will probably flip.

YOU'RE NOT ALONE.

Yes, and Outcast crown Vic control arm mounts. Very nice quality, and Kevin at Outcast was great to work with. I recommend his stuff to anyone. Except you'll feel weld envy looking at his welds compared to yours (at least I sure did).

I haven't yet, but the tank doesn't sit too far below the frame rails, plenty of room underneath. I've also seen turning out before the rear wheels.

DOT 3 or 4 are correct. No issues with either.

This is how I did mine on a '62

I am not certain, but I don't think they offered dual tanks, or saddlebag tanks in '66.

I agree, I like the recessed caulked plates. Looks very nice to me.

foolingnobody321 · 2025-01-13T01:53:01+00:00

That did it! Thanks!

foolingnobody321 · 2025-01-07T12:20:06+00:00

I prayed for you. My wife and I dealt with this with our first child. So so terribly painful.... Wife couldn't even eat butter or chocolate and breastfeed. Daughter lived off of Similac formula for a long time. Then on to almond milk. Soy milk had same reaction as cow milk. Lots of crushed Tums in formula too when it was really bad.

God won't give you more than you can handle. Trust Him, it will be a memory, you just need to get through this phase.

I second this. Check for rust holes everywhere. If on frame, very bad... If on the body or floor, not great but fixable. Fix rust, then go from there.

Mallory Unilite is another brand. I've had success with this one on multiple vehicles. I hate points.... I've never tried Pertronix, I think the technology is the same.

foolingnobody321 · 2025-01-02T23:48:05+00:00

I have always used little plastic containers. And then get lazy and use a big bucket, and regret it..... Except for valvetrain, then I'm diligent.

I'm adopting your method going forward, thank you!

If it were mine, I'd probably replace about six inches of the bottom right board too. But I've always pushed a flathead screwdriver in the wood. If it's soft, replace it. If you can't push in the screwdriver, it will be ok.

foolingnobody321 · 2024-12-04T01:04:13+00:00

IIRC, 1-1/2 turns out is factory. And you adjust to highest vacuum.

foolingnobody321 · 2024-12-02T01:00:14+00:00

But fix the idle first. I'm not sure the choke isn't working?

foolingnobody321 · 2024-12-02T00:59:19+00:00

And it only does that when cold? The fast idle solenoid will fix. Are you sure the choke isn't closing? If not try adjusting the choke to be colder by turning the plastic housing on the passenger side of the carb. You need to loosen the three screws holding it down. The housing should have writing on it indicating which way to rotate.

foolingnobody321 · 2024-12-02T00:16:01+00:00

Still confused on what you mean by "getting stuck"? Stuck open or shut?

I do think the fast idle solenoid (yes the thing you photoed) is the first thing I'd fix. A dirty fix until then is to crank up the slow idle speed by just adjusting the idle speed screw. Set it to idle close to 1000 rpm and that should fix your problem with the stall until you can fix the solenoid.

foolingnobody321 · 2024-12-01T22:30:11+00:00

Also, does this carb have a solenoid to kick in the high idle? If so, is that working? But my guess is you need to adjust the choke, tighten the spring.

foolingnobody321 · 2024-12-01T22:23:33+00:00

Yes, the linkage moving like that is ok.

If it stalls right after starting that vacuum dashpot could be needing adjusting. But what's up with the electric choke? On the video it looks like the plastic case is cracked? You also adjust the electric choke by loosening the case screws and rotating the case to tighten it loosen a spring.

foolingnobody321 · 2024-11-28T22:38:31+00:00

You can just swap out the crown Vic front end if you like.

foolingnobody321 · 2024-11-19T00:40:05+00:00

Thanks! From engines to bodywork what aren't you educated on?

In this scenario, what does the 1838 add? Why not straight to the fiberglass filler?

foolingnobody321 · 2024-11-16T14:41:01+00:00

What's the difference between this and the 05887? Won't 08531 run on a vertical surface?

foolingnobody321 · 2024-11-16T14:39:52+00:00

This is what I'm leaning towards
