    You must have cheaper muffler shop than around here, I don't even want to guess what they would charge in these parts

    A/C System

    Holy smokes I didnt know Bouchillon performance was still around. I used to stop by their shop in the 90's when I was stationed at Charleston AFB. Great group of guys, I'm glad to see they're still around.

    clicking and stalling on a 1988 Gran Fury.

    I have that same thing when I park on a incline. I just figured it was slop in the shifter linkage but I could be wrong about that.

    Cruise control troubleshooting

    I'm sure dad's would have suffered the same date here in Ohio. I'm always on the lookout for one but even those are becoming cost prohibitive anymore

    Cruise control troubleshooting

    That's funny that you should say that, I've been playing with those connections thinking about how they don't feel like they are making good contact. I'll probably check that tomorrow, tonight I ended up putting all new bushings in the windshield wipers. You need 4 in case anyone is wondering...

    Cruise control troubleshooting

    Kernel, looking at those pictures makes my chuckle. Could you imagine in this day and age a dealer installed cruise control! I can't imagine the look on the average technicians face when told they need to add wiring to the steering column. :D

    87 Diplomat surging

    That's what I ended up doing, I don't know how it was getting any signal at all the way it was setup through that valve

    Cruise control troubleshooting

    I've got a 87 Diplomat SE that the cruise is not working in. Speedometer works fine so I'm assuming the speed is getting through it and too my speedometer and there is a strong vacuum coming from the power brake booster. Anyone have any tips for troubleshooting these things. I have to admit with...

    Goin' to band camp! An easy band adjustment tutorial

    Good Lord, for as easy as it seems to adjust your front or kickdown band that thing sure is awkward to get to.

    87 Diplomat surging

    I'm not sure I would call that thing a check valve. It wasn't open there seems to be a diaphragm in the middle separating the engine side from the ECU side. I'm not really sure how the ECU was getting any signal because it was basically open to the atmosphere.

    87 Diplomat surging

    Well I do believe I fixed my issue. On a side note she seems to have more giddy up ad go now. I guess that's what happens when the timing is correct lmao

    clicking and stalling on a 1988 Gran Fury.

    Well its not going to hurt it and it's a simple swap back if it makes anything worse

    clicking and stalling on a 1988 Gran Fury.

    On mine the other side just had a foam filter that crumbled when I touched it. I'm not sure what the difference is between the sides but if I were you I would swap sides just to see what happens

    That's weird, I still have the lean burn but I don't have to that particular relay

    clicking and stalling on a 1988 Gran Fury.

    Leanburn is always the default excuse when they can't figure out what's going on. Try to figure out which wires it is that you wiggle to get it to stop clicking and check the connections on those wires. It could be corrosion or just an old connector that has gotten loose over time

    Just a quick spin around the block seems to indicate this fixed my issue but I'm going for a longer drive tonight to see if it really helped or not

    87 Diplomat surging

    So I'm finally back home and able to look at this thing again. That little device in my vacuum line appears to be some sort of a vacuum"isolator". If you pull vacuum from the engine side is feels like it's sucking a diaphragm back which would "split" the vacuum between the two ports on the...
