Set your initial to around 14deg to start with. Then find what rpm your engine likes to idle at,and set your curb idle screw there. Probobly around 800-900 rpm if all else is ok (in neutral,not in gear). With your Holley have your idle mixture screws at around 1.5 turns out to start with,then...

Nice work David,those TQ's look wicked! Hey thanks too for the advice you gave me by email awhile back,very helpful. It seems like your a real busy guy!

Check out the VH and VJ Hardtop models as well. Big 2 Door A bodies, They didn't make too many but they are gorgeous!

Cool story! What a score with the 340 and 4 speed. Welcome to the site!

FIXED IT!! The air horn gasket was the wrong one. It had the later type on it which didn't seal off the idle feed ports between the air horn and the fuel bowl. Especially on the L/H side. I did put the bushings in the primary shaft too,feels much better. I cant belive I didn't notice it before ha!

If you rebuild the TQ, make sure that you check the air horn gasket fits correctly as there are slight differences in the casting between some models.I recently had this issue. The incorrect gasket I had on there was not completely sealing off the idle feed hole between the air horn and fuel...

Yep,ditto on the yellow finish. It looks okay for a little while, but if you use the clear coat only on top of bare aluminium,it looks tacky pretty quickly. I know I did it once!

Ok cool. Thanks for the input guys. hopefully ill get the bushings later in the week. Would like to post some pics too,Whats the best way? Im pretty new to this stuff! MOPE69 I have noticed a little misalignment on that side,i think the bushing might fix it. I reckon you could be right,we'll...

Can nitrophyl floats be faulty from new? Because all the ones I have are new. I cant see four brand new floats being faulty. Just sayin'! Im thinking maybe because of the wobbly shaft, it could be drawing extra air into the primary that the idle circuit is not 'seeing' then drawing the fuel...

Rumble; Everything is tight,im going to pull it apart again while its off the car and look at everything with a magnifying glass.I checked all the air bleed passages for a blockage too but all looks good.I got the bushing kit from Quadrajet parts.com. Its got enough bushings for three jobs,uses...

Yes its dripping from the centre of the booster nozzle. Ill check the the floats again,i have tested them before and they looked ok.Ill check needle and seats again as well. Ive set the floats at 29/32'' and tried the factory 1'' setting as well but still drips.They are the nitrophyl...

Thanks Bear,ill give it a try

Hey all you TQ gurus! I have a problem which has been driving me mad for weeks. My 850 TQ will not stop dripping from the L/H side booster at idle no matter what I have tried. New needle and seats,swapped from side to side,no luck. Same with the floats. Set the fuel pressure regulator to...

Thanks guys for making me feel welcome! Ive got some problems with a Thermoquad at the moment,so I might see ya over in the fuel system section. Im new to this,just wondering the best way to post up pictures?

G'day all A body lovers! After fumbling around this great site for a while I thought I should dive in. I live in Sydney Australia and I have a 1970 VF Valiant Hardtop (basically a Dodge Dart) with a alloy headed 360 I built myself about 2005. This is such a knowlegable and friendly site,always...
