Vehicle Help / Re: RC Running Like Crap!

myself, i would pop for a reman points dist from autozone and drop it in there,hook up 1 wire to the coil and test drive to see if that cured the problem.

I want to wager you still have charcoal in the emulsion tubes and airbleeds.

if the dist did not work, a fast swap to another BBD 2-v would confim carb trouble or not.

if you found coal sucked up thru the line to carb why would you hook that can back up?  even with a filter to catch some? :dontknow:

if you did not remove any core plugs from passages in the main body and run a pipe cleaner or wire thru them, the coal will stay, carb clean and a soak will not eat it away or melt it to come out...it can only be removed manualy..from my experiance anyways.

i will wager carb problem at this point, all the spark in the world will not make it run with out gas getting into cyls.

I have a pedel that mounts to the firewall with 2 bolts and and the cable to the carb for a mid 80s truck.

i dont see why you cant drill a hole for the cable and the 2 bolt holes to mount it in the early cabs.

the cable hooks into the arm and has a plastic pin to lock it into the groove, then a round or square plastic piece that pops/locks into the firewall hole.

PM me if you want it, you can have it, it is from the junk cab i am replacing.
