    Help! Engine idling WAY too fast

    It's a carbed truck. I'll check the vacuum stuff but a vacuum leak shouldn't be enough to pull 2 or 3k... I'm starting to think that the throttle cable is caught or kinked on something

    Help! Engine idling WAY too fast

    exhaust/header project- need help

    One problem I realized today... The heat tube goes to the manifolds!!! I got headers so it won't work... But it rarely goes below 20 or so here in winter so I should be good.

    Sub Box Ideas

    Don't get an amp with more than about 800 watts. Rms is the only specification you need to pay attention to. Peak power is a useless spec. Just so ya don't waste money and then blow your subs on top of it.

    exhaust/header project- need help

    he was goin more for the heat tube part to help warm up quicker on cold mornings, i think... cuz open element air cleaner would render it useless
