    Duraspark parts needed, carb questions???

    I run the holley 350 cfm carb with #50 jets and have clocked 20mpg with plenty of power.Jets run about 8 bucks for a set from advance auto,easy to change.

Try hooking up a vacuum gauage to the intake somewhere,with engine hot and idling,adjust your carb idle richness needle valves.Turn one at a time inward until engine bogs,then slowly turn out until highest lean vacuum reading is obtained.Repeat for the other needle vavle,these are on front...

    Pics Carb/ Idle no power Help!

    Prepare to spend about $130 on duraspark parts and you'll need a non-feedback carb(motorcraft 2150) from a 78 or 79 pinto or mustang 2.8L. Another carb option is a holley 350cfm 2 barrel from Summit Racing,about $275-$285 new in the box. I printed out the tech pages on duraspark,ordered the...

    To locate the spout connector,look at dizzy tfi module and wires,follow them back away from dizzy,one wire will have a inline connector,thats it.
