Alex_23 Posted March 1, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2017 Mybad havent been on this . Havent kept yall updated. But yea, have done quite a few things. Rebuilt carb took it apart, previous owner did mention he had rebuilt it. I didnt wanna take any chances so i took it apart myself nd yea gaskets /seals/ evrything in there looked fairly new. So i cleaned it up & i put it back together w the rebuild kit that i bought. So far so good. I changed fluids (brake/trans/diff). Maaaan nasty brake fluid as you can tell from the bottle in the pic above . Lol Bled brakes.car does brake but going to have to upgrade that asap. If i wanna daily it. But for now brakes will do I used "sta lube"gear oil 85w-90 for my trans & some castrol 80-90 for my diff. Noticed when i bled the clutch i was leaking fluid and came to realize i was leaking from my clutch slave..i had ordered the replacement part from rock auto but they sent me the wrong part-.- & yeees i made sure i had ordered the right part lol.it was there bad. soo thats where im at rn, i will be returning the part& be waiting patiently for the correct one to come so i can replace..

Alex_23 Posted March 1, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2017 My doggyDog og peluchin guarding the dime lol Car stays on idle now. Just had to do some tweaks on the carb Messing w the idle speed screw & mixture screw . Finally :) So when i took out the datto for the first time it was bumpy at first lol Glad to say it didnt turn off on us but will have to focus on suspension / steering colum /bushings forsure. I do have a question! Im missing a choke plate on the carb. Check out the pics.. does that really make a difference if i only have one? Lol..will have to take it to a shop soon so they can tune it right. But for now im happy that she turns on nd drives lol Quote Link to comment
