Tech support from Edelbrock said "a credit card" gap for the choke. I'll fix the linkage and watch the choke slowly open- hopefully the problem will be fixed!

Today it started on the first try so makes me wonder about the gas bowl potentially having gone dry and that was the cause of my difficult start yesterday. Here's a picture of the choke plate. I think the throttle cable is actually hitting the choke return arm on the opposite side but to fix...

I'll take some pictures- but I agree there is something fishy about the gas delivery because it wouldn't even fire while cranking the engine like there was no fuel.

I recently adjusted my electric choke on a four-barrel Edelbroch carb (weber body) and think I did something wrong. It was extremely difficult to start compared to normal start ups. More problematic, however, is than when I step on the gas quickly it sputters and backfires through the...

I think this car is nearly stock so the drain plug in the converter should be there. Thanks!

Thanks Dave. I have the FSM so I'll be sure to read the details before trying to disassemble and reassemble the pan. Does the car need to be lifted from the front to get the torque converter to drain too?

I'm assuming if I drop the pan I need to drain the oil first? Or can I just drop the pan with a large catch basin? How much fluid does a standard 727 tranny need?

Done- it was low so I added almost a quart and re-checked with the car level and in neutral. Sounds better but still some screeching even after driving a couple m..iles. Definitely a leak.

That might have worked! It still makes a little noise in reverse but much better than before. I'll try driving around and see if it eliminates the sound with a few miles on the transmission. Thanks!

Ok- fluid is low- should have checked before posting :) Question now- where do I add fluid to top off the automatic transmission? Through the check tube? I can't find another fill port.

Will do that now! Thanks!

Hi, I have a '69 Fury II with a 318 and 727 auto transmission. When I put the car in reverse and keep my foot on the brake there is a terrible screeching noise from the transmission. As soon as I life my foot from the brake and the car is moving it goes away. Is this something with the torque...

Did you use a power disc/drum master cylinder for a Fury or another MOPAR?

BNZ84: Did you replace the stock brake master cylinder on your Scarebird kit? I just completed the same modification on my 1969 Fury II. I either cannot bleed brakes correctly or I need to upgrade the master cylinder to something with a bigger reservoir for the front disc brakes.

Everything has been hard with this thing! :) I actually got the torsion bars installed without removing the exhaust. I should have been more clear about the location of the aftermarket exhaust. It is about five inches away so I can push the torsion bar back somewhat. When I removed the torsion...

Thank you! I read those directions but what they don't describe is my situation where I have completely removed the torsion bars (and upgraded them to bigger ones so you can't index them) and removed the lower control arm. Do I re-install the LCA, ball joint, strut and brake assembly, then try...

I need some help with reinstalling my lower control arms, torsion bars, struts, and lower ball joint on my 1969 Fury. I recently replaced all the bushings and upper ball joints so the entire front end was taken a part. My challenge is re-assembling everything and getting the torsion bars to...

I got a 12 ton press from Harbor Freight. Worked fine and I was able to remove the shaft and rubber inside the lower control arm. My replacement part is Moog K7007. How do I push out the metal?

I was looking at presses and for a small increase in price I can get a 20 ton shop press. Should I just get the bigger one? Not sure a 1 ton press will do the job.

I'm working on the front end of my 1969 Fury with the intention of installing a disc brake conversion, bigger torsion bars, new upper ball joints and bushings, etc. Question for today- Any tricks for pressing out the lower control arm shaft and then the bushings or do I need to buy an arbor press?
