:)i meant the whole thing, but if the other guy really needs it he can have it, i thought for free i couldnt pass it up, i already have 1 spare

Rubberman, i am anxiously awaiting an update man!!!!!! pics pics pics lol:D

damn, what kind of wheel was it anywas? i liked the look of it

wait a minute, if i adjust the fast idle srew down a bit shouldnt it idle it down, then after i get that working good the engine will warm up causing the choke to turn off and the linkage to come off fast idle, then i can try adjusting my idle again, but if my motor was warmed up then why wouldnt my truck run when i took the choke off, and adjusted my idle screw?

it was probably a nice car before he hit that 2500 lb angus bull, hit it so hard it knocked the fender flares off :eek::eek:

everything?

well guys heres what im going to do, everything i can tell is in working order, everyhting is in the right place, ive checked double checked and triple checked and adjusted everyhting i could find, every jet, every passageway, linkage, choke, anti dieseling solenoid, everything, im gonna remove the bcdd and take it off, i have a very early version of this hitachi on an old l20 and it has a block off plate where the bcdd should be, im gonna block it off and try it and then maybe buy a new solenoid, if that doesnt work i will have a free hitachi carb if anyone wants it, and i guess i will park my truck and let it rot, i know thats not funny at all, thats the truth, i cant afford to fix it so it will rot in my yard untill we move and then it will rot in our new yard, lol or i guess once i pay off my 600$ debt i could try and save for a weber, or for parts enough to use my mikunis

shoot well how much is the shipping

what are you going to do with your old steering wheel? i want it

how much to ship the shifter to 42503? the knob is wood, does it have the 4 or 5 speed pattern?

with the linkage on the steps, the cable has about an inch or 2 of slop in it, when its off the steps it tightens up the cable but the cable is NOT preventing the primary throttle plate from closing, im honestly about to give up

also could someone help me with putting my choke on correctly and setting it correct?

ok guys heres the scoop PLEASE RESPOND WITH ANY HELP YOU CAN GIVE, when the linkage is sitting on the fast idle cams my throttle cable is very loose and i have no pedal, when i get it off the cams and let the throttle plate close then it allows the linkage to turn down and tighten up my cable then i get my pedal back, when the linkage is sitting on the fast idle it revs super high but when i back it off of the cams it wont run right at all backfiring alot then revving up unless you give it gas, i took the carb apart cleaned it again and verified that all the parts were in the right place, with the linkage off the cams and the truck not revving high i have tried adjusting the idle screw, nothing, it is infact moving moving the throttle blade but it has no effect, all of my intake manifold gaskets are sealing and no leaks, i guess what i need to do is get the fast idle to sit on the lowest cam somehow (correct me if im wrong) and go from there? PLEASEPLEASE RESPOND SOON, i need a vehicle to get to college

ok guys i have the carb completely disassembled, any suggestions while im down this far? i double checked all the jets, they are all clear, and in the right position, throttle plates are workign correctly everything seems to be in order, if i have a leak in my gaskets below the carb, inbetween the carb and intake could that sucki excessive air and cause such high revving? a fast response would make my day!!!!

took apart bcdd, cleaned and inspected, re installed, what do ya know !!!! high idle from hell still!!!!!!! im not doing this shit all day AGAIN i applied 12 volts to the solenoid, blocked off the vacumm, bla bla bla, both throttle plates are closed on startup, completely colsed, and what do ya know 4 grand all day long, this is beginning to really piss me off

it doesnt make sense to me either, i have had the carb off several times to inspect the throttle plates, the secondary is fully close unless i push on the linkage to open it, up, im betting that when started the primary goes wide open somehow, im getting ready to go back out there and do more testing, i will report back shortly

see thats the thing my carb worked untill i decided to rebuild it it needed an acclerator pump and a good cleaning, when i took the banjo bolt off the little screen was full of gunk, take a look at the pics its spotless now, when i took it apart i layed out all the jets in perfect order so that when i re-installed them they would be right, maybe i just fucked it all up, im about to smash the thing, no screws are broken there in the same spot and as tight as they were when i took it apart, i tried my best and ive done this sort of thing before, normally when i rebuild a carb it fires right up, do a little adjusting and 5 min later your good, never had a problem like this before.

shit i paid 50 bucks but i would def ask 100, its worth it, i guess something is only worth what you can get for it, sometimes more sometimes less, someone should buy it

the float is working fine, i re adjusted it, now it fills up to the dot and none over and stays full, also the fast idle i didnt mess with, its how it was when i took the carb off so it didnt get out of adjustment, and yes the throttle blades are closed because i took the carb off 4 times and verified it

i paid about 50 bucks for mine

i have 3 dollars cash and 20 dollars in change, try a suggestion that doesnt require the use of money, lol, im probably the poorest guy on the forum

ok i took it apart and cleaned it again and used a small piece of wire and poked through the passages and blew through them to verify they are clear, tomorrow i will re install it and try again but i have got the feeling that wont help, lets say it doesnt where do i go next? its all clean and seems to be in goood working order

the whole time i have been trying to tune it the vacumm hose has either been off or plugged i tried both, i tried turning the screw in and out to no effect, and please please ask strange questions, if they are strange most likely i havent tried it, i took the bcdd apart and cleaned it and put it back together, maybe i should take it apart and oil the little metal round plunger, i replaced the gasket on it when i had it apart, maybe the gasket could be blocking a passage? ill take it off and look

yes the secondary was fully closed, and the screw you are talking about i backed it out so that it was not touching the linkage at all, thus keeping the primary shut, i even took the screw completely out once to be sure that it wasnt interfering with the primary in any way, i also adjusted the screw every time i had the carb off so that it barely cracked the primary open in order to promote idle. when the engine is off i look down the primary it is closed as well as the secondary, the primary must be opening up when i start it up and it must be opening completely, but how, im not touching the gas pedal, and there is a hefty spring holdin it closed unless i throttle up, and no it doesnt move in the opposite direction at all, how could it? the throttle blade wont let it move backwards
