RE: [Chevelle-list] fixed old problem, found a new one...

Sorry, should have said vacuum secondary and the only way to check this is to disaasemble it because the vacuum signal comes from internal to the carb.

Do you have a Holley Carb with a vacuum choke? If so, check the diaphragm. Same for the vacuum advance on the distributor. You don't have to disassemble them. Put a piece of vacuum hose on and (OK I have to be crude here) --- suck. Does it leak?   Larry -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of Dan McIntosh Sent: Tuesday, July 29, 2003 1:01 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Chevelle-list] fixed old problem, found a new one... I did notice that one of the terminals on the cap was kinda loose.... I was down to around 1/8 of a tank of gas.. who know how accurate the gauge is..... so I filled it up yesterday, but haven't been able to road test it yet...   I will definitely check for the cracked or loose fuel line... my car gets bounced around a bit, I could see some things working themselves loose after awhile..   thanks for the tips!   Dan McIntosh Pavement Scraping 1964 Impala SS http://www.lowriderimpala.com ----- Original Message ----- From: Diane Peppin To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, July 29, 2003 4:46 PM Subject: RE: [Chevelle-list] fixed old problem, found a new one... Have you checked for vapor lock? Do you have a carb isolator? Lines too close to the manifold? Cracked distributor that acts up when warm?...cracked fuel lines near the tank? Mine did the same thing, found a cracked rubber fuel line. Its fixed now. ;-Diane
