On the high idle, look for vacuum leaks coming into the system. Grab a can of carburetor cleaner or starting fluid and spot spray around vacuum areas. You will know when you find it. Keep moving forward, doing a great job.

Found a leak on one of the smaller length crankcase breathers yay! I think it might be ok now!

How did you find it?

I used brake cleaner, I drove it around a fair bit, I still think the idle is high though but I couldn’t find any more leaks. I think there is a component or two I should check. I don’t remember what they are called atm.

I added about 4g to the fuel tank and the gauge still reads about 3/4 full. I wonder if my cleaning messed it up a little. It didn’t look like there was much to the sender.

The gauge does sweep but perhaps something might be up with that.

Also need to find some seat belts, mine catch really easily. Is there a bracket or something that holds the belt closer to the seat?
