Best place to hook up vacuum gauge on Edelbrock carb (permanent and temporary)
Absolutely. For myself, I’m not looking for efficiency, just wanting to time the carb since in some areas it is rich, and others too lean depending on where the throttle is at.- ChuckN

Carb backfire under load
If it is a 1406, it is a 600 cam, but more importantly it is jetted conservatively and also, the accelerator pump nozzle is amongst the smallest Eddy uses. As @Ricko1966 stated though, if it was running fine and suddenly changed, then it could be something different. If it was fine before and...- ChuckN

Best place to hook up vacuum gauge on Edelbrock carb (permanent and temporary)
Oh, mostly for tuning the step up springs in conjunction with the AFR gauge so I can tune how quick or slow the fuel comes in- so I’ll need it in the cab with me. The main reason for the question is I wasn’t sure if vacuum gauges in general were “dead head” or if they had any flow through effect.- ChuckN

The Eddy carb has limited ports. The trans modulator is connected to a fitting on the manifold itself, the rear (large fitting) is used by the brake booster, and the front is used for full manifold vacuum for the timing advance (not ported vacuum, the full vacuum fitting). If I tee into the...- ChuckN

Nice! Love the Coming To America reference. Did you get the Big Mick? -
What have you done to your square lately??
Got the voltmeter taken care of. Picked up the printed circuit retaining clips from my buddy, and for sure they are a thicker gauge of metal. Took a lot more effort to snap them in as well. The other thing I noticed was one of the nuts in the back of the gauge was almost imperceptibly loose... -

Congratulations man! Glad she’s up and going again. I know I don’t sleep well when my square is down. -
What have you done to your square lately??
Took it out for a cruise and got a fresh tank of ethanol free. After that, got into figuring out why my voltmeter goes in and out. I’m putting it down to cheap printed circuit clips by LMC. Wasn’t making good contact. So I tried to adjust/bend one and it snapped in half. Have some on order and... -

Looks like driveshaft will need to be lengthened? Or is it just the pic? Nice upgrade! -
What have you done to your square lately??
I think that’s your temp gauge. Edit- Temp SENSOR. The gauge works better in the cluster in the cab. -

The sun came out so I went for a cruise and did some errands. -

1986 Automatic Transmission Leak
I’ll just chime in to recommend the Moroso steel core silicone gasket that @edgephoto mentioned. I bought one and it’s the bees knees.- ChuckN
