    Front turn signal wiring issue

    I bought the truck last year. Changed the bulb recently. It comes on when I pull the light switch all the way out. But doesn’t blink. Doesn’t come on on the first click of light switch with the others.

    The contacts are a bit corroded. Would that make it do that ? It was almost like a wax

    Front turn signal wiring issue

    My left signal in the grille of my 85 seems to be wired wrong, I can’t get it to blink but will turn on with running lights. Any electrical specialists out there that can point me in the right direction ?

    Quadrajet sputtering

    Yeah only when it’s cold. Once it was warm it was fine. Rev’d up nice had that q-jet screaming. The choke wasn’t closed all the way so I think that needs adjusted but it opened quick yeah. It stopped sputtering after about 10-15 minutes. All lines are hooked up for vacuum. I’ll try again today...

    Quadrajet sputtering

    So I did some work. I checked timing and it was bang on. Initial and advanced. The distributor advanced and vacuum advance worked. From what I was doing today, it sputtered when it was cold. But once warm I could gas it and was searching for sputter. I don’t know.
