My solex wouldn't hold fuel for more than a day or two either and the garage stinks like gas for 2 days after I drive it. Once I pulled my PCV...
I've got a solex carb and I could use some help.. The carb is one I picked up from somewhere I found online, cost about $100, was brand new and...
Before my OD and rebuild my all stock 2a would do 55 or so, I once touched 60 (on my GPS) but it was absolutely screaming and took awhile to get...
Scott, did you ever come up with a solution for your 30 spline axles in your 2 piece axle housing? I'm researching the same thing right now.......
I had always assumed the 'chain drive' distributors spun the opposite direction. Now I'm not so sure! I can say this for a fact though: The...
There's a few things you can do. Just don't expect too much... :) Resurface head/block (I just had them go far enough to clean up the pitting...
You might also try your local electrical/automotive shops (places that do starters, alternators, etc). On my 'bendix style' starter (no solenoid)...
I'm going to vote for C. I think if you reverse the seal you'll sling all the wheel bearing grease out into your brakes. You might try using a...
I think a few years ago the price would be high, but as mentioned, now that we have 100k muscle cars and 20k+ flattys at auctions anything seems...

When I stripped my chassis down, I wish I would have known about these LH shackles!! I had a 2 foot breaker bar on it and kept turning the nut...
The parts/machine shop labor for my L134 overhaul, done in central PA was roughly the same costas 48cja's. I ended up doing a few more things to...
For whatever it's worth.... I bought a 'solex' carb from these guys about two months ago, it was $99 (best price I've seen). Works pretty good...
Had the same problem on mine. With the L-head (or at least on my jeep) there is definately not room to run the adapter you are looking for and the...
I think where I'd start, is I'd unhook the postive battery cable and place a multimeter/ammeter in between it and the +. You should see...
Good deal. I've done that before too! Worse yet, one time I was trying to get the dwell/points set just right. Eventually I adjusted them to...
Yup, I'm guilty of the 95% done jeep. After cranking out a full blown ground up resto in 6 months, I promptly stopped and haven't done a darn...
Nope, they don't touch the springs or frame locked either way, I'm running 1/4"negative (wide) offset wheels. I set my adjustment stops with the...
You might try some NGK's. I've had a few brand new-bad plugs from autolight and (I think) champion (on other rigs) and have yet to hear a bad...
