    4.2 intake water fitting

    I need the fitting at the front of a 4.2 intake for the water. I have one at the back and didn't know what it was until a friend asked why I wasn't heating my intake. My front hole just has a plug in it. PM me or email LAH2420@yahoo.com. Thanks

    hard starting

    You might check with RedlineWeber.com to see if they have any help they can give you. They were pretty good about communication when I was trying to get a throttle linkage kit.

    Nutter bypass question

    The purple and orange wires at the firewall from the distributor are twisted together, so they should be easy to find. At the ignition module, which side of the plug are you looking on? My purple wire stops at the plug on the module side. I spliced a wire from there to the purple wire at the...

    hard starting

    My Weber did the exact same thing. I don't see how the gas can drain out since it comes in from above the bowl. My guess is that it bleeds off enough pressure that you have to crank a while to build pressure back up. I finally gave up and put a MC2100 on it. Now I just pump the gas once to set...

    VIBRATION! someone please help!!

    All I did was put new stock springs on mine and it started a vibration. The new springs lifted it about 2 inches over what it had run for years. I ended up having to put in a 1 inch transfer case drop. All vibration went away. It was a cheap fix too.

    clutch

    Isn't 90W too heavy? I use syncromesh myself, but thought a synthetic 75W was recommended.

    Carb and Timing issue

    You'll love this one. I stood on my head in the engine compartment to try to see why I could only advance my timing to 8*. Guess what happens when the vacuum advance body makes contact with the corner of the motor mount. It still decreases timing by 4* after the motor gets hot, but at least I...

    Carb and Timing issue

    OK. I bypassed the ECM today. Warmed it up. Set timing. I ran out of adjustment at 9* BTDC. I ran it down the road a couple of miles and back. Checked timing. It was about 3 or 4* BTDC. What else could cause this? When hot, timing drops. When first started and warmed up it is fine. It has TFI...

    Carb and Timing issue

    Since this is an 87, they went through and put in a conglomeration of parts from 86 and 87, as well as whatever else was on the floor of the factory. You might have just hit on the experimental distributor system that AMC was trying, without success, to develop. I wonder if they Chrysler will...

    Carb and Timing issue

    Yes I did. Now here's a good one. I checked the timing this morning after I warmed it up to normal temp. It was 9*. I then checked it this evening after driving home from work. It was 6*. I think it wants me to go crazy.

    Carb and Timing issue

    On to the next problem!! I've had my MC2100 on for about a tank and a half of gas now. Starts great. Runs better than the Weber did. But it flat out sucks gas. The first full tank got less than 10 mpg. The Weber got 12 to 15, depending on how I drove it. The Carter before that got 15 to 17. I...

    Carb Swap Question

    A friend of mine ran a 4bbl on his CJ for a few years. I don't know what CFM his was. His has a cam, headers, and dual exhaust. He is going to install the 2100 in it's place. Even with his mods, it is too much carb for the motor. I just put the 2100 on mine. I don't know about fuel mileage yet...

    Several (dumb) questions

    Tried something similar to that one time. The front tire didn't get me. The back one did.....as well as the inside of the windshield, door panel, dash, etc.

    Spring replacement problem

    Put the other side on jack stands and got both springs replaced in about 2 hours. New springs raised the rear end about 3 inches over what the old springs were. I knew they were sagging, but didn't realize how much. Now on to the front!! Hopefully my degree from the School of Hard Knocks...

    Spring replacement problem

    Thanks. After 2 hours of fighting this, I came inside and then started wondering if that was the problem. Everything I do on this is a learn-as-I-go deal. I'll jack up the other side tomorrow and try it. I'm also prepared to kick myself when it goes together easily.

    Spring replacement problem

    I just got the first rear spring off tonight on the driver's side. I compared the old and new springs and everything lined up. When I went to mount the spring, I could align the pin on the spring pack with the hole in the bottom of the axle bracket and could put the rear shackle on. The front...

    Dieseling after MC2100 install

    I think everything is working now. I have a friend who was an old carb guy before specializing in diesels. He said it was definitely one of three things. First was a possible leak around the throttle shaft, second was a pin hole in the EGR valve, and third was a leak around the EGR gasket. It...

    fuel problems

    The line from the tank to the fuel pump comes in on the driver's side, dips under the motor, and comes up the passenger side to the fuel pump. From there it goes across the front of the motor to the fuel filter. I would check the line where it goes under the motor and see if you kinked it. Also...
