Well it took a while and I must've pulled the distributor out 15 times but got it. Thanks all

73 225 duster auto. I can only get 5 degrees initial timing before the distributor maxes out on adjustment, but have plenty of retard available. I think the distributor needs to be rotated one tooth but not sure. And if so which way should I rotate it.

Noticed the drool tube when changing the gaskets on em

Was changing spark plugs and noticed chafing on the drool tube for number 1. Turns out got a bent pushrod. Car ran fine, got compression, no noises, no overly adjusted rockers. Guess I'll just hammer it back straight and continue on with life. Planning to swap in a v8 anyways,, it's just odd. To...

Going to change my oil pan gasket, 73 duster 225. I hear it's a load of fun in the car. Any tips or tricks?

Can I leave the egr valve in the exhaust manifold and just have no vacuum hose hooked to it? Already deleted the osac valve.

I'm aware of the fuel line change needed but concerned about throttle and lockdown as I don't have a Carter here to compare too.

73 duster 225 with Holley 1920. Is the bbs a bolt on conversion or will I have to change any linkages etc?

73 duster. Holley 1920. Looks like the bowl cover is bent at all 4 mounting locations and I'm not sure about the hole, is a barb busted off or what? And the metal blade at base of carb has a gouge in it? See screwdriver pointing to issues. What do I do if I need a new carb?

what do the vacuum lines im pointing at do? I removed the hockey puck manifold and ran the distributor and egr? under the carb together and then to carb vacuum. Is this right, it sure does run better. I also unhooked the vacuum lines going to the air filter housing.

i run 2 1/4" pipe with a 40 flowmaster and a turndown diretly behind the muffler(not a fan of tailpipes). sounds like a lopey SB at idle and smooth up top. i get zero drone. if your going to get a FM look into "jones full boar" mufflers, they are exact copies(FM's patent ran out) and cost 1/2...

i have not put in a new fuel pump but will try that. i didnt want to buy a new one until i heard that could be the problem. no charcoal can.

ive cleaned the sock in the tank, and replaced filter.

haha no. this happens after 2 days, i could pump and crank on the starter for a half a damn hour and nothing. ive owned close to 20 vehicles, 2 of em were FI. i know how to start a car. i can let my 73 dodge truck sit for months and not have this issue, its not evaporation.

it even drains out the in-line fuel filter. are there no check valves anywhere in the system?

theres not much gas in it, the car more or less has sat for 3 years. every month or so it gets moved around and tinkered with, this started about a year ago.

73 scamp, stock 225 /6 car runs great, the issue is after the car sits for a couple days the gas syphons back to the tank, only way to get the car started is to pour gas down the carb. once fuel is to the carb it will start no problem. what is letting the fuel drain back to the tank? the...

360 scamp, hows the throttle response with the 390? did you loose any mpg with that setup, that is if you drive "nicely".

already sounds like a bad idea. is the super 6 intake the only 2brl intake there is, or are there any good aftermarket ones? im just looking to upgrade power some without loosing the gas mileage. the engine runs like a raped ape for completely stock. i was thinking carb, intake, cam, exhaust...

ok so i have a brand new edelbrock 600cfm quad sitting around and a stock 225 /6. would i be able to run this carb on a stock engine or is it too big? and what intakes can i buy for it? so far i can think of offy and clifford.

i had a very odd thought about putting a hibourn style air scoop on a /6 sticking out the hood, but of course this would be off center towards the driver side. has anybody ever seen something as a functional scoop for a /6 or would this just look retarded? pics...
