I thought once I went hei all those sensors are essentially disabled.

I’m stuck. I’m Done except for throttle linkage which has proven to be harder than I thought. But I can’t tune this thing bc I can’t get it to run long enough. It fires up at 1500 rpm. I have 22 inches of vaccum but the Thing surges like crazy vroom vroom vroom like I’m blipping the throttle...

Reading chapter six of Haynes manual seems to indicate that the cto ensures it only empties the fumes back to the carb when the coolant temp gets to 70+. So will mine not empty or will it constantly empty this possibly making it run a little tougher on cold start. I want to keep it to keep fumes...

Not running the computer emissions anymore. I have a vacuum Line coming in from fuel tank to first port closest to firewall. Second port is going out to tee w pcv back into carb. Third is purge port. I don’t have a CTO switch or any of that bc the PO started the process of eliminating stuff. I...

Rachel’s down and it’s teeth bite the stud. Then it stiffens up once full tight and w a little bit of extra pressure the bolt comes free. Worth twenty bucks. Literally took 2 min a bolt. Way easier than double nut but cost a bit. But for twenty bucks i can pull broken bolts and everything now w...

Problem solved. Finally got bolts out. Two but trick worked on two but others wouldn’t have it. Spent 20 bucks at AutoZone on PT stud remover. Worked outstanding. Spacer popped right off.

Simple question. I’m in the middle of bbd to mc 2100 switch. Like literally. Got bbd off. Mc2100 ready to go on. But I can’t get bolts out that bbd threads onto. Also there is a black plastic spacer that seems to be on there pretty good (so long as the bolts are on. I assume that comes out and...

Reviving this thread. I put a new crt hei distributor in. Pulled the old ign control module and coil too since this is an all in one. Keep started up. Went for drive with timing at 10 btdc. Drives great in 1st and 2nd but bucks a bit and misses in 3rd 4th and 5th. I had the distributor bolt...

Well I never “fixed” the issue at the steering wheel. Someday I will do it right. For now I pulled the wire at the horn (which was the little black wire you see). That way it doesn’t make the horn blow all the time when it touches metal. My guess is that was pulled through by the PO when the cam...

Btw - just to round out this thread and help fellow jeepers… my particular situation def had to do with advance. I needed more. I also slightly increased curb idle. I recently put a new starter solenoid in (mine has the CJ-87 solenoid on firewall). It was shot. Since then she fires up way better...

I adjusted the idle by using the idle mixture screw in the carb. If you nudge the distributor to advance (counter clockwise) or retard (clockwise) you should reset the idle bc it will go up or down depending.

So I’m about to put an hei distributor in from crt. I think I’m ready except for one thing. I know nothing about electrical. I can follow simple directions so I can kill the power and hook up a light in my home. But but without basic instructions I don’t know anything. Literally. But I know the...

I think so. I just got a timing light but haven’t used it yet. I just advanced the timing a little by turning the distributor cap the tiniest amount and then driving it around

There’s one big one on the firewall behind the engine. Maybe another one on the drivers side firewall too. A few by the head lights. I’m a total newbie on all this stuff watching you tube and trial and error basically so I don’t really know where all of them are but follow around the body and...

Oh I did clean up my grounds too.!

I may have figured it out. More like stumbled upon a solution by accident as I barely know what I am doing based on YouTube. Anyways hope this helps the next guy. Unrelated but I just did the butter bypass. I had to adjust the carb screws. Anyways - when I did I tightened the sol vac which for...

Mine is missing the plastic piece and spring. I’m thinking the wire is somehow connected to the bottom of the plastic piece bc it def blows the horn when I touch it to the surrounding metal. Weird. Right now I have it taped w electric tape bc it would drain the battery even though I disconnected...

Well I passed inspection over the summer w an aftermarket horn button. But still trying to figure out what this black wire is supposed to hook to. I know I’m missing the plastic cancelling cam pin and spring. But what and where would this black wire connect and does anyone have the exploded...

Yeah sort of a good news bad news situation. Alternator is more expensive but grounds and shorts hard to find. The lights and the heater seem to be the two that set it off more so than the radio. So I guess I’ll start there. But I don’t know much about electrical. Im guessing all the grounds in...
