I wrote a long nice post and when i hit post it deleted it because it auto signed me out. So now you get the fast half ass version lol..
I was given a free truck, 191 original miles, auto trans. The truck is ugly as all hell, a bit of cancer everywhere. Cab forward and frame seem good though. Was a old farm truck that sat for 10 years in a field. I want to use as a cool retro little beater to haul things in. Its runs, turns on but the carb had issues. I took off to clean, someone had taken off before and could see old red rtv on the gasket.
I think it was a vac leak on carb gasket between mani, also the egr was seized up mid way when i looked. I also replaced the secondary vac chamber with a spring to open at 1/2 throttle regardless of vac.
I believe the screws on the car, all 4-5 i see may have been tampered with. I cant find a manual PDF or diagram for my 1980 carb. The one i found seems to have the screws in a different spot...? Can anyone help?
I need the factory carb assembly screw twist count. So I can reset the carb back to its original settings to adjust from there.
Also what all emissions can you delete? I dont need to pass smog in my state, and if i can simplify it it would be easier to find issues when they come up. Whats required to run the engine, the less vac lines the better.
