    Anybody replaced Pitman shaft seal before?

    My concern has always been the rust ridge that builds up in the bore. It seems to be difficult to remove so the seal can push out and be reinstalled. There are a ton of vids about this out there tho.

    Anybody replaced Pitman shaft seal before?

    I seem to remember otherwise. I thought it was held in my a snap ring behint the arm and could be pushed out with pressure by turning the wheels with the engine running. Never had to do one personally tho. Perhaps more research is in order.

    And setting up gears takes patience and skill or more $$ to have a good shop do it. If you mess it up it's even more $$$.

    Cant get rid of paint overspray on inside windshield

    I just looked at the MSDS for Gumout jet spray carb cleaner. That has MEK and Naptha in it. If you try that you will have a use for the leftovers. MEK is strong stuff too.

    Cant get rid of paint overspray on inside windshield

    Not all is equal tho. Like rubbing alcohol the content is measured by percentage so read the label and look for a higher percentage.

    On a truck that will see street use you are probably better with an automatic or selectable locker.

    Turn signal fuze blowing

    Or become thoroughly annoyed. You can use a 12v lamp instead of a horn if you prefer a quieter method. The only downfall is you need to see it. long wires allow it to be located in a visible area. Another option would be a buzzer like the one for the door or key-in.

    Venturi to increase exhaust?

    I think in the end headers, an X-pipe, free flowing mufflers and properly sized pipes do a pretty good job of scavenging. I believe the venturi works because the outlet is near the end of the pipe and open to atmosphere but still very close to the engine since it is installed in the header...

    Vacuum Advance

    To sum this up: 1. Set your base timing at about 12 deg btdc with your engine RPM around 600. 2. Connect your vacuum advance to manifold vacuum. 3. Readjust your idle speed to the desired RPM. 4. Adjust idle mixture if needed. (I say it's needed but the procedure can vary so I will...

    Quadrajet choke pulloff not working

    Pretty much. When the engine is cold and you open the throttle fully the choke should snap closed and the fast idle came should rotate as well. Thats the piece the screw you mentioned touches. The cam is weighted and has a slot that allows the choke to open while the engine speed stays up until...

    Cant get my engine to run. Please help!

    I can't remember since it's been a while since ive worked on an eddy carb so forgive me my asking but it may be relevant. If there is only 5"hg of vacuum are the main jet rods not pulled down? Would that allow enough fuel through anyway even when the idle jets are closed fully? I still suspect a...
