When I bought it in Reno in 99 and brought it to Washington (near sealevel) .It was diagnosed (by emmissions) as having a lean missfire. Several of the shops I talked to talked about drilling the throttle plates to get it better. It had # 64 jets in the primaries.I was told that #67s came standard from factory.I added a plate in the secondaries from Quick fuel Tecknowledges that would accomadate regular changeable jets and a notched float.In the primaries I moved up to #68s. Since, the floats have been adjusted up and down.air bleeds have pluged and cleared,choke towers were milled off,float whistles .large needle and seat. I have two Carter 15 psi 100 gph pumps and a new Bg adjustable fuel log . I started out at 6 psi on one pump and 7 psi on two .I have since lowered pressure to 3.5psi at the fuel log.The rest of the fuel is returned to the tank constantly.It has been down for over two years and I want it to result in a dependable car that isn't allways waiting for parts.Getting towed home isn't desirable.I have to get it running close to right in order to get it perfect HA HA .
