Its already rich. They swapped the stockies out with bigger jets.0

That would be nice. 1406

Wow. I havent updated this in a while. getting around 9mpg in town. adjusted the timing, carb, and swapped out intake gaskets. A lot better than the 4mpg i was getting upon purchase. still have a few bugs to work out

Thanks so much c130

Ive had the fewest issues with Holley, Ive only had 1 problematic Quadrajet at my own fault, and have yet to have a decent Eddie. The Eddie on my RC isnt the worst unit ive ever dealt though. I think with a pair of qualified hands that it could have the potential to be an ok carb

I may be in over my head with this. So much more homework is yet to come. I believe i have all the parts (ecm, tbi, sensors + or - a couple, ignition) all from an 89 305 firechicken. I know there are a couple folks here whom completed this swap and I would love to hear from you. The distributor...

Seem to. I'm going to have mpg numbers tomorrow. I think that will tell me a lot about where I am with it

It's almost gone, but I think a lot of that is in the secondary ignition too. I'll know more when those are replaced

If I followed a friends instruction properly and such. It seems the total timing is About 33* and initial being close to the 14.5* mark. It ran amazing last night. I did not mess with the rotor. I completely spaced it. I'll look at it when I replace the cap and rotor. It's running really well at...

It has vacuum advance. I unplugged it at the dizzy before adjusting the timing. I cough a glimpse of it in this photo. I highly doubt it disproves it being a lean burn dizzy as this is a cali truck. Where would the ecu be mounted? It's not inside the fenders. Also, what re-writing needs to be...

Thanks karl. I don't currently own a vacuum gauge, but thanks to 63 morepar it sounds like that is soon to change

Pics of the cap/rotor

Lmao!

Wow. Timing made a big difference. I have the timing mark hidden under the water pump at the moment I'm going to drive it for a few days and make some tweaks to see what it really likes. Not TWERKS Larry....

Thanks aj and everyone else as well. I didn't know how out of touch with carbs I was until now lol. I finally have time today to mess with it. That is what I'm doing now. The cap seems ok, but it's beat to shot from the po. So that and the rotor and wires and plugs will be changed asap. Holidays...

I don't have a good timing light so getting the total timing isn't gonna happen unfortunately. As far as the stumble goes, it's immediate when taking off from a stop light/sign typically. It didn't do it today after tinkering with it a bit mor, but it's definitely gutless. GR is 3.21 Kick down...

I'll switch it back and play with it more. Everything else seems to be doing what it should. :wack:

It was on that one and had very little vacuum. Timing light read 9.5 btc hooked up and not. Put it on the other one which had strong vacuum. Off idle stumble is almost gone. I know. It's always the easy ****. lol! Still has a nasty miss, but I'm pretty sure that's in the plug wires. Cap, rotor...

Those of you running eddies, which vac port are you using for the dizzy adv?

Usually is in my case....

Double checking the timing tomorrow.

I know lol I checked it several months ago when my buddy still owned it, but I can't remember what it was set at now lmao I just went out and confirmed. It is a single pick up vacuum dizzy like I thought

I actually dont recall. i need to look. I keep meaning to check timing and keep forgetting :banghead:

I am concerned about the lean burn aspect of it. I read that there is supposed to be a module/computer in the fender to control it. That is an item I do not have. The point went through and trashed all the emissions equipment that was on it (CA truck). That is about the only thing that would...

What are the pros/cons of the 9292s 1980' s truck 360 thermoquads. I know they're an emissions carb with the bowl vent on the back.

My buddy brought me what is supposed to be the original carb yesterday. its a rochester quadraet that is also has GM on it. Not what i was hoping to see in the box, but its better than nothing. Needs to be rebuilt though i believe. its been sitting in the edelbrock box since 2009. The part...

All great advice. Who knows, maybe I'll get this bastards whooped Posted via Topify on Android

Good to know. I'll check it out and see what they did/didn't do, Posted via Topify on Android

Robbys and I have had this thing to 3 different carb techs to have tuned and jets changed and such with no luck. Nobody can get this thing tuned right. It's got this wicked stumble on take off and if you go to pull a s large hill and have to really give It throttle, it stumbles and falls on its...
