    No Spark, No clue...

    And the cap and rotor is probably going to cost you another $25 from a place like Rock Auto... probably more at a local store

    Sheet metal

    I would bet that the eBay panels are very similar or the same as many other sources out there. There can't be that many shops making the reproduction metal for these trucks. If that AMD place makes theirs it's probably the only place that does or either they get it imported to their specs, not...

    84 C30 Exhaust - Stymied

    Sounds like it has Ram horns on it now and he wants to go to the later style manifold. Why a manifold off a later truck won't work I have no idea. Let's see some pics as he said. These guys will point out real quick what may or may not be happening.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    NO!!!! Don't drive it off the stick. You are suppose to check it hot on level ground in park. BUT you should still see it on the stick even cold and off. It will be higher on e warm so it should usually be just below the minimum line when cold and running, cold and off it may be a tad higher?

    Can't see secondary throttle plates open.

    OH YEAH there opening now! There is a major difference in the sound as they dump fuel into the intake. Seat of the pants is a little better, but I am running 33s on a truck with the totally wrong gears.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Check and clean ground. Many electrical grimlens are due to wonky or poor grounds. Also make certain that wires are not rotted internally. Can check resistance or just replace

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Short answer it it says Dextrin...any number your good. I think current or the last Dextron spec was 4 but that's an outdated fluid I think so it may have stopped there, but it may be 5 now?? But it's backwards compatible not that long ago it was Dextron 3

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Any fluid that is a Dextrin/mecron 2,3,4 . It most likely will say sex/mex type IV. I buy Walmart supertec. There I think is two types they Sall I think both say ATF but one is that one you bought which is for the Chrysler family and the other "atf" is the Dex/mec IV fluid which is mostly for...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    For sure NOT what you want. It should say Dextron, I think there up to like Dex IV ?? But any of them will work but you won't probably find lower than that. The ATF is chrysler...and might work in something else but I don't really like those universal type fluids.

    Haha, that's so funny. I can't believe these people drive around looking for that crap! NO WAY I could live in a place like that.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Yesterday I got my secondary throttle plates unstuck. They were stuck close, not sure how long though. Still haven't driven it since I did that.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Does your HOA get on you for your "shit box" truck? Not that I think it's one but those suburban soccer mom's probably do.

    No Spark, No clue...

    Did we ask this? You sure it's not 180 out? You have been pulling distributors.

    No Spark, No clue...

    Good call, not sure anyone mentioned that yet. Timing chain could of been streched, jumped time, worn gears...did these have the nylon ones originally...maybe never swapped and it jumped? If timing doesn't add up may need to pull the front of that motor apart....but confirm everything thing else...

    Can't see secondary throttle plates open.

    Will have to do that at some point. I haven't even driven it since I got them free. There is a possibility that they have never functioned from day 1 when I bought it.....15 years ago. I was young n dumb...didn't know half what I do now. Never drove a square before that and if they never worked...

    Calling the Holley carb experts

    He said before this post he is useing manifold vacuum for advance.

    What is this?

    But in all seriousness, if you have experience with foreign stuff you should not have much trouble once you actually look at how it's all routed. It's no where near as complicated as those old Toyota's or Mitsubishi's I have worked on. There are vacuume lines everywhere. Even factory dead end...

    Or BMWs made here....Stihl chain saws made in Virginia Beach.

    Haha, that's why he said it. Just as Ironic as Toyota trucks now made here in the US and GM trucks made in Mexico?

    I see the same and I agree with that recommendation

    Can't see secondary throttle plates open.

    Ok there free now. I sprayed PB blaster last night on both side of the outside of the secondary throttle shaft. I also sprayed the insides of the throats on each side where the shaft passes through the carb body. And I sprayed it again this morning before work. When I got home I wedged the choke...
