General Discussion / Carburetor Heat Spacer, yes, no
« on: June 11, 2021, 02:34:24 PM »
There is a 1/2" Phenolic Carb Spacer on now and can't use metal ring spacer for the cowl induction air cleaner.
I did make a new choke linkage so that works and looks original.
I'd like to have the original look under to hood, but also worry about boiling the gas on hot days in traffic as I drive it a lot.
What would you all do, leave it as is or remove the Phenolic Carb Spacer.
Thanks in advance

General Discussion / head stampings?
« on: June 05, 2021, 04:22:15 PM »
looking at some 186 heads but see stamps on fronts and backs.
some numbers with letters SS and one seems to be SAXER.
any ideas on these dec 68 casts
besides being 2.02s, would they be appropriate markings for a z28
thanks again

General Discussion / fuel guage readings in console
« on: May 21, 2021, 05:02:26 PM »
when tank is full, guage reads considerably beyond full, believe it has maxed out.
when guage reads 1/4 and I refill it takes about 10 gallons
when guage reads nearly empty, it still takes 8-9 gallons
I am hesitant to run the guage down below empty to see how far it goes until there is about 3 gallons remaining.
It seems as though the guage could exceed the empty as it does on the full.
If I remember correctly, my other one would go past full about 3/8", where this one the needle is nearly out of sight
Am I just splitting hairs here.
any ideas, or just live with it.
Thanks in advance
Walt

General Discussion / Key Buzzer Fix
« on: April 26, 2021, 05:55:18 PM »
my key buzzer stopped working, the buzzer may not work if the horn does not work as the two are the same relay.
FIX:
remove the steering wheel, the clip and the pieces to get to the turn signal switch
remove the plastic signal switch to get to the key switch
TEST the buzzer by jumping out the two terminals on the bottom of the signal switch assembly. if it buzzes, then it's either bad contacts or the switch itself may be faulty or in need of cleaning or adjustment. if bad it's an easy replacement.
carefully pry up on the two copper connectors on the key buzzer switch and be sure they contact the base of the cam.
Works for me
Now you can enjoy the annoying key in the ignition buzzer!!

General Discussion / non-tilt steering column 69 date code vs 73 date code
« on: February 20, 2021, 07:41:20 PM »
does anyone know the difference between the 69 and 73 non-tilt column.
any physical traits.
date code orders.
I believe for 1969 date stamp sequence is: 8 A 361, meaning 1968, first shift, December 27
I located one and can't tell if it's an 8 or 3 stamped .
any other ways of being sure what year it is.
thanks in advance for your help on this
