Project Bulldog. (1988 Diplomat AHB)

awww hell no. wires and connectors everywhere. this is weird. has the classic HVAC hose fix but the hoses are still hanging out everywhere. this where they exit out the firewall? mystery connectors on the AC controls. there is a connector that looks like it should go to the larger black connector all the way on the floor by the fuse panel. these are probably to the in car sensors. hmmmm maybe the green black and red connectors go here. diagrams in the manual aren't too clear. (88 Chrysler Service Manual)

speaking of fuse panel. is the AHB fuse panel different? everything is missing from the right side. though maybe ports were reused for the radio.

new PCV Valve (old one was stuuuuuck in there!) and some screws in busted vacuum hoses and the car runs 50% better. hesitates less but still slow to accelerate.

one odd thing i noticed, so this connector is supposed to go to that O2 sensor (?) but instead these hoses are here. one is hooked to the cup looking thing to the right of the Carburetor behind the kickdown. sorry i don't know what it is called. on my civ this has a check valve on it and goes around to the emissions ports on the firewall.

anyways i think i'm going to need this carb rebuilt. don't think this thing has been cleaned once in it's 35 years of life. lean burn crap seems to be working fine. car has never once stalled though i've only driven locally around town. can be slow to start though that's just a Quadrajet thing. i think i need to get used to their start procedure. so used to my BBD's one/two pump, foot off, vroom

this will work for our cars? my old oil pressure sender broke and spewed oil everywhere (on the AHB tree). been struggling to find one for 100 PSI at the local auto parts stores. i do have one that is for 80 PSI that might work temporarily
