Brilliant idea saves me looking. Can you explain why the hole is sized smaller in the intake line? When I am better Iwill do it.

Thanks Tom. will try and find one to attach to the inlet port.

Looking for air cleaner parts, in particular the upper lid material mine has deteriorated to the point of no return. Who sells them or what is an alternative material I could use. Needs to be fire proof. Thanks

Should the main line to the oil filter have an orifice to reduce the oil flow? laid up again so I read articles, some say if you block the main line at the filter, you could increase the oil pressure.t

Found the process on UTube, neat idea. Thanks guys.

Thanks, Lee and Jon, Jon could explain the propane set up I am not understanding the process. I think my idle may be high will go back and try again.

I cannot get any adjustment on my two idle mixture screws; carb was just rebuilt by a rebuttable source. Was trying to increase my vacuum which is around 15. Installed a new manifold gasket and manifold. Any suggestions on how I can find a possible vac leak. Called the rebuilder and he say's I should be able to kill the engine by turning both screws in and with this still no change. Car idles and runs and still stumbles. 56 H engine

Thanks' Ray and JF. I was able to drill and tap both sides of the knob and shaft switch, it was tough. The handle is stainless which was the most difficult, the bit slid all over the place while starting but in the end, I managed to get some 6/32 threads in place. Will use a bit of JB well to fill the wallowed-out part on the switch.

My switch handle broke, how difficult would it be to get at the mechanism inside the steering column to replace this part? Or am I better to drill to out and tap ne threads on both parts?

Ray, you may be right. I thought the original cap would be removed and a new cap with the rubber hose adapter would clear the opening. I will check further and with the hose it would be under no pressure. Still sounds ok to me, eliminates pulling up the carpet and possibly messing it up. just messing with the idea.

Wondering if anyone has installed a remote reservoir, it seems like a good idea. Just a thought

Thanks' Tom, they are currently unavailable so will have to wait and see if they make them again, my existing one is 5.5 lbs a little too strong for the carburetor. I will just have to learn to ease up on the primming. Messed up my float setting.

Thinking of installing a fuel regulator, the higher pressure changed my float setting previously. Can I install one under the car next to the electric pump yet before the mechanical pump? Used only for priming. Also is the Holley brand any good, seems to have a few negative reviews?

Thanks Tom I have not tried to start the car because of the low voltage. Do not have time to play with it now but will try to start it soon, will let you know. New Autolite plugs. Skip was saying the new resistors are sometimes poorly made.
