INPROMPTO TECH DAY!!!!! SATURDAY APRIL 2

I need to save up for some spindles......

Dearest members this is such a good time you have no idea. We all love cars and the only one we will ever crack on is Spencer's space ship pointing to the moon. Come out you will learn so much in one short day I promise.

The Type 4 ho

Your so mean..... Haha

You know if you put the number '1' (which is appropriate) in front of the number '4' in Type 4 you get the number '14'

Huh, Type 14 from the number 1 and the number 4.

Interesting...



Thank you, todays post has been brought to you by the letters 'V' , 'W' and the number '14'.

(queue the Sesame Street theme music)



Sunny days, keeping the clouds away, do do do...

Spencers bug has a new name MOON BEAM

That's a good one.

You mean like Guvna Jerry?

Moon Beam sure seems appropriate.

Sorry spencer vw wanted you bug to go up hill

Where is Spencer to defend himself?

Should we call Houston and check on him.

Something.

WHAT ABOUT BRADS CARS NAME?

BRADFADILL

That is great



Dont forget to check in on Dann his wife has taken away all sharp objects in the house

No, it was Braffodil.

PERFECT!

Is there anybody that is in Sac that might help me with getting my bug tuned up so I can go on the run.
My carb is acting up.

Im going to mess with mine tomorrow, Im getting alot of back fire. If I get mine right Ill swing by your way.

Valves first guys... adjust the valves cold... .006 intake and exhaust. Then timing... 29 or 30 degrees at 2500 to 3000 rpm for the 009 distributor.

Then the carb... with the car running.. turn the screw in slowly.. if it is not dieing, then you have a vacuum leak somewhere.
If it starts to die, then back it out till it revs the highest point and turn it back in about 1/8 or 1/4..

Idling problems can be the idle circuit.. needs to be cleaned out.. the smallest debris and clog it. Dip in carb cleaner and blow out.

Also don't forget the float level.. if it is to high, it will flood out the carb on hills or hard stops.

Damn work.. wish I could get down there to help. But by the time I get off and was to drive down.. it would be dark.

Hope the above helps

Yep, did the valves in feb. when I bought the motor. Im pretty sure its just the carb idle speed as I need to tap the throttle to keep it alive when in neutral. Thanks for the help!!!

Don't forget to check the points. .016 is where they need to be.

I appreciate it but now I just found out I have to go out of town and will not be back until thursday. Give me a email at alvin_anderson@live.com

At least you'll be around for the Ranch Run.

I would love to go but I have a previous engagement I am a race official for the local Chamber of Commerce, Daffodil Run.

I will be on your ranch run in spirit.
