Thank you, will try this method.

Thank you, makes sense to me. I wonder if it can prevent jet closure with full vacuum - i.e. piston rod will touch the cam(and plate) earlier than rods close out the jets. Anyway, I assume I will still need several tests - set up the screw according to the pic I made before teardown, then turn...

Well, I screwed up and screwed this screw back an forth before I've read that it should not be touched (( Although I have this pic how critical is it to set up properly? Any advice? Should I tune it a bit on a running car?

Thank you mate, problem solved already with this wrench

Yep, used 13mm wrench which is 0.012" bigger than 1/2" wrench

Looks really nice :thumbsup:

I assume its main purpose is to crack loose different bleeders, but if "spread a bit wider" it is possible to squeeze a line inside of the wrench and use it in such situations.

I have set of these flare nut wrenches, but this wrench still was stripping the nut. I've also tried universal wrench, but it was either el-cheapo one, or nut is too small for proper grip - it was spinning too. Vice grips and pipe wrench was the last method, since it's easy to destroy nut...

Hello, was trying to pull TQ from my BB, but this nut seem to be super tight. I wonder if there are any pitfalls? Reverse thread maybe? It's getting round rapidly but still not moving. Left it soaking in atf for now..

I'm running 02 Dodge Intrepid as my DD, sometimes use 91 Lebaron with turbo and manual shifter. My wife drives 06 Town&Country as family minivan.

Good catch :p however company I work with exports cars from US, not sure if they will be able to handle everything through Canada. I will contact them to verify, as the price seem to be reasonable for this Imperial.

Looks pretty sweet. Is it a big deal to bring it to US? Anything tricky required or just load it up on a truck and move on?

Looks a-ok for me to be honest. Definitely depends on final price, but still seem to be a car and not a rusty bucket

As for starting, today is 50F and after sitting for 2 days car started like a champ from the first engine rev, without any priming/pumping - like modern injector car. But carb tuning was harder than I expected when watching uncle Tony's videos - have some random misfire, which causes vacuum gage...

Continue getting familiar with NYer. Was concerned about blinking OIL lamp that I haven't noticed earlier. Checked the oil level and it was too high and was superthin like water. I suspect it was thinned by gasoline. Am I supposed to change oil every time I have starting issues? :) So there was...

Thank you for explaining even basic things. Although I do understand some carb principles, it is always better to have some support :) As for the update today - was able to start the car (in 4 hands) - son cranked it while I was trying to see squirts through opened primary/choke door - and...

No it doesn't run, doesn't start (another car is heard on video). Thanks, I guess I'll check fuel pump first then will look towards disassembling carb

Well, I found out that it is pretty hard to troubleshoot this stuff alone :) anyway, first I noticed that metering rod is stuck/not moving, but that was an easy fix - unscrewed it and released, screwed back. now it moves freely. Somehow I rode fine several times and didn't notice anything...
