    Idle quality issues. Boy I sure talk alot.

    Morning Everyone, So got the eddy carb installed on the Newport, Summit was super cool and will warranty the thermoquad once it gets back to them. This is the second one that I had bought, which also was a failure. Cruise, throttle and kickdown all hooked right up to the Chrysler adaptor for...

    rebuilding Chrysler 400

    Idle quality issues. Boy I sure talk alot.

    Hello All, So I finally got around to doing some more digging on my Newport and have not been able to diagnosis a rough idle issue i have (guess I have an idea I just don't want to face it). I think the best place to start would be with what I have done to the car and what I have tried in...
