Slant 6 Turbo 68Dart Project
I finally founnd this photo on sl6.org a couple hours ago and welded the governer like you did in the pic, then cleaned it up. Mine's pretty close to .32
The battery functioned with the starter perfectly before. I was unaware that the screw in the center adjusted the fuel down as it screwed in. I turned mine all the way out... silly...
I assumed for some reason less pressure on the spring meant less fuel pressure. Also yes there is a return line. I'm going to try and lower the pressure and see if that helps. I swear the needle and seat are clean. I've taken the bowl off several times to check.
Also Bill, you wouldn't happen to know which way the dizzy is turned to retard timing? with it running I just check with a light, but I don't want to risk trying to get it to run too advanced. It seems odd because this is the original distributor marked and put in the same spot.
for the flooding. check the regulator. did you run a return line? if so just cap the end of the feed and set the regulator to 3-4lbs. turning the screw in the middle in lessens the pressure. that slow cranking sounds like you have a dead or dying battery or a loose ground or connection somewhere. i had to chase a couple demons when i put my battery in the trunk. just a thought. keep up the good progress man you are so close.i welded mine and used a dremel to clean it up to fit the posts back in the holes.
