  1. Still no idea, under load it starts to missfire, swapped coil abd wires, tried swapping the resistor. At idle and when reving it runs fine. As soon as i try to drive and it gets under load it wont fire on all cylinders
  2. It runs really rough when driving on highway, but when stepping on it it gets a little better, sometimes runs fine. (Most often it only runs a little less rough) But with constant speed underload It isnt fun at all
  3. Not an altitude ptoblem, i think. finland is pretty flat. Where it was bought was 232meters (760feet) over sealevel and im now at sealevel On the trip home we also drove at sealevel for 1hour and it was fine.
  4. Is there a good conversion to get a better rearaxle better gearratio thay isnt that hard to find spareparts for
  5. Tank have been dropped by me, fuellines and electric pump by prev owner. Pumpsize cant be to small for such a little carb
  6. Ive been thinking about overdrive as i live in finland we have alot of volvos. Volvo used a overdrive with electric engage button, cheap an small
  7. As said, not ballast resistor ot coil, vac adv is moving but dont know if its movibg as it should, didnt try to pull wires cause it runs fine when not undet load, strange thing is that it worked fine the first day when driving the car home for 250-300miles
  8. Ballast resistor since its 12v the coil get 12v at startup but when running it gets lower voltage
  9. Have some info or a pdf with instructions? What parts do i need? Or is there a kit to get a newer axle with better gearing for todays speeds
  10. Tires swapped, sadly 2 trim pcs are missing. What are streamboards? Os that custom or a option?
  11. My torqueball or joint or what is called is loose it has alot of play, how can i male it work as it should? Im based in finland nobody knows about these cars, no spareparts Everything needs to be shipped from the us and at the moment i have a small budget. Sometimes it feels like im going to loose my rear end on the road its really alot of play
  12. I bought a buick special 1939 stock engine. 4liter and stock single carb It idles fine, revs fine But under load its rough as a bad missfire or maby not firing on all cylinder. Checked distributor for play, Vaccum adv hasnt rusted shut. Point looks good. Swapped coil didnt help, Tried do disable resistor. Spark plugs and wires new last year by prev owner Can it be fuel problem? How do i set ignitiontiming on this car? Does anyone have a manual for the carb?
  13. Hi i found a buick that was imported from the states 2013 or 2014 found it about 500 km away with to small tires drove it home it wasnt fun at all do to the high rpm. Now on the other hand with right size tires its fun to drive. It has along way to go and i have found a handfull of these cars in finland. It still has stock engine and transmission, sadly i have problems with ignition, torqueball/joint . Only missing parts are radio and 2 chrome trims as well as seats And somebody did a crappy 12v conversion
