  1. I believe the truck was sold and remained in the state which is great for rust, or what appropriate amount it has on it. I did purchase a wideband O2 kit and currently running 14.7 - 15.2 at idle. Elevation where I'm at is 974' and currently running 104/165 pri. jets THANK YOU for the link. Much better feeling getting this reference than ordering off amazon myself and end up with junk. Sounds like bumping up primary main jet is in my future!
  2. Anyone have links to a set of jets that will thread into a stock DCH carb? I've seen some on JEGS, but I don't want to spend money unnecessarily if they don't fit. Thanks
  3. You find anything more on this? I believe BCDD is working on my truck but I'm trying to grasp the physical connections themselves. I have two wires coming from top of gauge cluster (blue with bullet connector and red? with spade connector) going to an IC chip epoxied to a heat sink and a third connection that is the BCDD (YellowRed) from the factory harness. No idea, but if it ain't broke don't fix it, so not really going to mess with it. Just curious.
  4. Hello all! Took a FS5W71B apart today. Found something I was not expecting. Synchros are weird color right? Well the are the steel band type kind of like the ones Porsche used on their 901 and 915. Reverse half looks like BEEBANI's post on page 79 under Drivetrain, but 1 -4 look different. Why they are there beats me, I do have a suspicion it was a previous shop doing, along with other fails that classify this as a hack job. So objective of this post is to see what your guys' thoughts are on this. I would like to slap it back together and see how it rides but it was issues that need addressing. Thanks! P.S. I flipped the bearing tool around, had a fart moment
  5. Steel From what I gathered, they can be a one piece or two piece wheel. I'd prefer one piece
  6. Hello all! Trying to find wheels that look like this. Hopefully picture is sized appropriately The closest I found was Unique series 265 black v-5, cragar 365 series v-5. Searched their catalog and they do not have my bolt pattern. Looking to get 15" x 8" in 6 x 5.5 (6 x 139.7) with a little bit of offset like the picture, maybe -19mm? If you guys know of any wheels that look like this please shout out. Tried generic terms on google and couldn't find these wheels. Amazon and eBay with no luck in bolt pattern You guys rock! P.S. this pic may be on here from another user some time ago. Not entirely lazy as I did try some digging here for the info
  7. @mike.lovell127 Good deal. I'll probably try what you did when the weather is more forgiving.
  8. Not a solution! I might have a similar problem like you, asking you and following this thread for possible solution. No cut off switch though in my 620. Is your problem like a faint flicker for both light indicators when signals NOT engaged? Kind of consistent in pulsing? Does the symptom go away (or be very very very faint?) and come back when hitting the high beams? P.S. winter is coming

    Keep that dream alive!
  10. I noticed my fan is cracked at the base? Needing a new fan just in case mine decides to grenade unexpectantly lol. I have a '77 620 with A/C so 8 blade like you are mentioning. I read somewhere on here concerning replacements catering to pitch rather than OEM fit. Something about 7 blade with more pitch would be better than more blades and not enough air flow. Somewhere in the 300's page I wanna say lol. I have a machine shop at work and they're "getting with the times", i'll ask if they have a 3-D scanner.
  11. @Onstad hopefully you can see the pics. Self explanatory I think. Phillips #2, lineman pliers, 10mm wrench. I cut the hose a little short, may be revisiting later lol hopefully this helps. Ill see if I spill gas at next fill up, not entirely too sure about the quick hose clamps.
