    Imperial on VGG

    Finally I get to watch him suffer like how I suffer. I had stopped watching his show because it had stopped being relatable. I'm about an hour in. I hope he doesn't leave to rot in a field like all his other cars

    car stalls when first put in drive. dies on sharp turns. 2bbl 318 Gran Fury

    As much as I loathe Chinese carburetors, they're cheap enough that as you wreck them with ethanol you can just slap another one on there

    904 Transmission Rebuild

    You could just buy a core for $100 and see what happens. 904 Cores are $75-$100 bucks around here

    car stalls when first put in drive. dies on sharp turns. 2bbl 318 Gran Fury

    I use ethanol free gas. The carb is just old and dirty. Idk if it's original but it's definitely a factory carb. The car didn't go anywhere all winter. I've only had it out twice. Berryman's B-12 is what I used. I fogged it down with the spray, then went after every orifice with the little...

    Volare Police Car Adjustable Throttle???

    Alright, who can help my smooth brain understand how this thing connects to throttle? It's like a game of tetris and I'm rotating it to get it to fit

    Lean burn deleted, now transmission does not shift properly

    But I like that video! lol I know its not specific to our cars. I think it explains how it works in a general way

    car stalls when first put in drive. dies on sharp turns. 2bbl 318 Gran Fury

    I took my Dip out today and it started doing something similar. Sputtering and stalling while stopped in drive. So i hosed the carb with B-12. For awhile. Then let it soak in. Then ran the thing while holding the throttle open and hosing it down. Fixed. Maybe your carb is just gummed up

    The trouble with the FF Torsion bars...

    Yeah I'd gauge it before trying to remove it. It could be a huge waste of time trying to sand it or melt it off only to find the bar is machined wrong. Edit: or just knick it with a razor blade and see how thick it seems

    The trouble with the FF Torsion bars...

    Powder coating is usually in mils, which is like thousandths of an inch. It would be absolutely hilarious if instead of a .002 thick coating someone put down a .02 thick coating. That almost seems impossible

    I'm no expert, and it is very hard to diagnose anything over the internet, but it looks like only half the conversion from the lean burn was done. That old carb isn't helping anything. You can get a cheap 2bbl carb and see if that solves the problem. Check for any vacuum leaks. Check all your...

    I'm probably the only one here who is too lazy to switch over from the lean burn/spark control computer. I also have an 87. Right off the bat I can see that the carburetor is different from mine. I'm assuming that's because it was a Canadian or export model. When I was digging into replacing...

    The trouble with the FF Torsion bars...

    There's a two hundredths of an inch difference? That's enough for a machine shop to take off. I know it won't go in a regular lathe but there are all kinds of mills that could make it happen. I wouldn't think it would be the powder coat. That would be an obnoxious thickness for powder coating...

    Volare Police Car Adjustable Throttle???

    Yes. I won't pay $100 for a custom fender tag, but I will pay $60 for a goofy throttle add on
