    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Is it Carb?

Progress

Cyg, I definitely appreciate the offer. Maybe we can coordinate some time for the week of labor day. In laws will be around this coming weekend, but I have the entire week of labor day off (Vacation).

I put the intake boots and o rings back on with high temp grease, and no intake leaks. The only problem is that it still is keeping the high rpms when I decelerate, not all the time, just intermittently. I noticed if I give a quick blip of the throttle the rpm's go right back down. The rpm's don't jump up, they just stay at whatever the highest they were when I let go of the throttle. The throttle cable doesn't seem to be sticking.

What could it be?
 
Think it's ok

Think it's ok

I think I figured it out. The choke was just a little bit on. I pushed down more firmly on the lever and it stopped doing it. I don't know if it has something to do with the cleaning and so the choke is working better now or what, but now it's working fine if I push firmly on the choke lever.

As for power, I think two things. The first is that the cleaning helped quite a bit. Second, is I changed the way I drove it. I was treating it like past cars I had and shifting at about 3000 rpm. Holding off shifting a little longer has also made quite a diffference.

Also, no more gas leak. So my original problem is taken care of.

I now have the slight oil leak by my tach, but I can live with that for a while. (good winter project)

RustyBronco, that's a heck of a sync tool. It might just be the way I go when I sync them.

Thanks again guys for all the help.
