  1. Cap and rotor button new also? I would double check the wires firing order too. Running out of adjust on the dizzy sounds suspect to me.
  2. Very nice looking! ?
  3. The bigger one is zero. https://goo.gl/images/PGLqGS
  4. I love that color. 112 yellow is also up there. Very much period correct in my opinion. The 70s, hair and all. ?
  5. New phone. Wow hundreds of new faces. This is gonna be fun!
  6. Good decision.
  7. Looking good! What color did you decide on?
  8. Have you installed a clear filter coming out of the tank? A fram g3 works better on 240's smaller hose in my opinion. They're cheap to. You might use a couple and get the crud if it's not too bad. 240 tanks are jobbie job! You have to deal with all the evap hoses. Edit: G2 is the 5/16 for 240s. G3 is 3/8 for 280s. My bad.
  9. My dog thinks he's a movie star, he hides when I try and get a photo. Here's the one that I knew he was for me. Miserable and worried looking one on the right. He's a happy boy now and me too!
  10. Yes! It's gonna be better. I gotta a cool phone so get ready for pics and my regular bs.
  11. !!! I'm a James too. Tripilsec James! I love you guys!
  12. Thanks Mr JFA. I'd like to go to Dollywood next, whups this year, but Nashville or Franklin is a no brainer for me. Hopefully I'll sit on the porch and have cold beverages with my guys. Two Jim's! There needs to be a drink named for those guys. Two fingers is taken, two Jim's isn't. The Jimmie Shimmie? Jim's Wobbly? James's Shame?...
  13. I've read many post of problems with hot restarts for EFI. People getting stranded at the gas pumps. Have you tried the all rubber fuel rail Jeff G 78 suggested a long time ago?
  14. You tell me. I've never bought any.

    Charles and Cody that looks great. I saturate my fresh blasted aluminum with satin clear from Eastwood. I'm always happy with the results, no greasy hand prints after installing. Takes about three soakings with my hvlp gun to get to the soaked level. Won't take no more.
  16. Best present ever. Thanks Mom. It has a magnifier for my old eyes, flashlight and an unbelievable camera. I agreed and accepted more stuff this morning during set up. I'll probably get a $1,000 bill next month.
  17. I see the direction arrows are backwards but it's a nice car to me no matter which way the tires were rotated. Good luck with the selling of your car. Seems like a fair deal. 8^)
  18. New years plunge. That's funny!
  19. I'd forgotten about these. Thanks Richard.
  20. The only ball drop I'll see tonight is when mine hit the toilet. Happy 2019! It's gotta be better, I think? Cliff
  21. Mine worked with MSA's 6 to one ceramic header but I did have to trim some off the transmission's extra bulk so it wouldn't touch and rattle. Not a big deal but I'm going by my header, no idea what you have. Good luck.
  22. A beer in both hands and one in between your feet. We are all friends here, no need to to play all innocent! Be careful though or you'll have another tricycle engine.
  23. When I bought my '77 the face of the oil gauge was up against the needle. The guy I bought it from thought the gauge was bad I reckon? He tapped it out of the holding ring. I doubled up some duct tape and pulled it back into place then rebuilt the motor with a turbo oil pump.
  24. Just reading what others have said I don't think your gauge is the problem. From Steve's post... If the ammeter has failed completely, typically the car will not start since current will not flow through the ammeter. For starting the car, power goes from the battery, through the fusible link and ammeter, and to the ignition switch. And that's the starter not the alternator you're checking voltage on. I'm sorry I can't be more helpful. Good luck. Where does the needle point when the car is off? Should be at the center. Then when the car is running does it go all the way to the left, negative? If it stays at the left running or not, I would disconnect the battery and see where the needle goes. Again, good luck.
