new family member! 72 dart no budget build
i made some decent progress today. man, its been a while since ive been able to work on her.
so, heres what i have been running(pictured). honestly, its sucks. its really really really slow. and also, the stromberg carb is not my idea of an appropriate part. it has no way, that i can figure out, to put an aircleaner on it, and it also spews a bunch of gas out of the vent when i shut it off. i imagine its a needle and seat issue, because the engine keeps pretty cool. i just cant see the fuel boiling out. but, whatever the case is... its time for it to go!
it served a great purpose of helping me to see if there were any oil or water leaks, if the transmission works, if the engine smokes or knocks, braking quality, and all other drivabilty issues that you cant know if the car just sits there in non running condition.
