    Quadrajet choke pulloff not working

    It needs to be on manifold vacuum. Once you confirm that check to be sure the can pulls in like it should. It should pull in fully without pulling tight on the green rod leaving a liitle bit of travel. If when the can pulls in fully it doesn't pull the choke open a bit pinch the U-bend in the...

    Soldering equipment....one better than another?

    you will need rosen either way to get it to stick. rosin is another name for flux. it acts like a cleaner. I don't like having to flux and then solder unless it is on really small stuff that requires very little solder.

    Soldering equipment....one better than another?

    Most of what you find in a store will be lead free but if you can find some with lead it will work better. In most cases rosin core will be the most convenient to use.

    Electric Choke Question

    While I am one of the lucky ones that ran a glass filter for 10 years with no troubles. (Yes I changed the element often) I would not run one again. I would go with a metal inline filter.

    Electric Choke Question

    The rough running could be not quite enough vacuum pull off. You could try a little adjustment there. Otherwise the high idle is all effected by the high idle cam. The adjusting screw pushes directly on that cam. Check to see if adjusting it actually moves the throttle.

    Electric Choke Question

    There should be a tap for fused ignition power on the fuse block. You can run it off of there. A factory install would use an oil pressure switch so the heater won't be on unless the engine is running. This prevent the choke from heating up if you leave the ignition on without the engine running...
