    Ported or manifold vac for overdrive bypass vac switch?

    Thanks for the schematic, what's the NO tab on the vac switch? Before I started trying to set it up right it had the wire on that and not NC.

    Ported or manifold vac for overdrive bypass vac switch?

    Okay I got some pics and it looks like they're marked so that's nice would these switches be running off of vac pressure or the trans pressure?

    Ported or manifold vac for overdrive bypass vac switch?

    I bought the car with the combo and this whole time the switch was sitting there without a vac line connected. The overdrive has always worked though, and I will try to get a pic of it there are pressure switches on the side of the transmission

    Ported or manifold vac for overdrive bypass vac switch?

    There is a kickdown cable but again I don't really know much about this so I don't know if that answers your question.

    Ported or manifold vac for overdrive bypass vac switch?

    Manually downshift to second? I don't understand I guess. I know very little about the transmission end of my setup honestly but what would I be looking for to answer your last question? Also it might be important to note that there's two drive gears, O and D and when I got the car the guy...

    Ported or manifold vac for overdrive bypass vac switch?

    I have a vacuum kickdown solenoid installed on a 360la a500 overdrive combo, (got the car set up that way) and I'm wondering which vac port to run it to. Here's the solenoid The idea behind this (I'm told) is that during normal driving, it would go 1, 2, OD. But with this hooked up...

    Vacuum kickdown solenoid setup?

    I'm not sure how to find out I, but also I'm pretty sure this switch is custom

    Vacuum kickdown solenoid setup?

    I discovered that there is a vacuum kickdown solenoid that appears to be wired up so I am wondering firstly where I should run the vac line to it. Trans is an a500 overdrive, engine is a 360 la, and the carb is a Carter 625 cfm. Heres a pic of the switch I don't know for sure if it's hooked...

    Weber Marine Carb on 360 la engine?

    Okay so I've taken it off and apparently both of the ports for the primaries are above the plates. I did see light through the driver's side passage so it isn't blocked. You can see the line where the plates are closed is above the ports. And this last pic above is with them closed... So I...

    That's what I'm thinking but I will confirm either tonight or tomorrow with pics

    Weber Marine Carb on 360 la engine?

    Yes this is how I have it set up, but I have a suspicion that port isn't drilled in the manifold vacuum port.

    Maybe not the most practical, but definitely very symmetrical.

    Weber Marine Carb on 360 la engine?

    I will give pics of where the ports should be when I take it out again but here is a couple photos from when I rebuilt it

    Weber Marine Carb on 360 la engine?

    Yes it's the correct side that I'm checking and the other is ran to the distributor

    Weber Marine Carb on 360 la engine?

    This might be the case since it's for a marine application... I've seen some diagrams refer to that port as an EGR? Port On marine carbs.

    Weber Marine Carb on 360 la engine?

    Well I will try the carb cleaner but if not then I'll take the carb off and see what's going on with that port.

    Weber Marine Carb on 360 la engine?

    If it is plugged; would that be debris or something done by the manufacturer since it's a marine carb? If it's like that from factory is there anything to do about it or should I be in search of a normal carb?

    Weber Marine Carb on 360 la engine?

    1-The needle on the gauge doesn't even move at idle at that port but at the choke port I believe it was around 15 inches 2-ive been hunting for a leak but I've been unsuccessful so far in finding it. Would a mild leak cause it to have 0 vacuum at the port though? 3-its possible it's blocked, is...

    New to the forum and looking forward to asking many questions about my project

    I'm new here but I bought this (very customized) 1955 Plymouth Belvedere about 3 years ago. It's my first project so I'm still learning as I go. I've replaced and I guess -placed- a lot so far but I plan on doing much more. There's a lot going on in this car and a bit of it is still a...

    Weber Marine Carb on 360 la engine?

    I have a Weber (9635sa 3026) on my 360 with an Edelbrock performer 318/360 manifold and I am not getting any vacuum at idle from what is supposed to be the manifold vac port (drivers side). I recently rebuilt the carb and it runs a lot better than it did but still has an inconsistent idle. I do...
