    1968 Newport Carter 2bbl carb.. I rebuilt and now it idles way too fast HELP

    Car was running pretty good but bogging when I stepped on it. I saw the pump was only squirting into the left horn. Gaskets were toast so I did a rebuild.

    Mine won't adjust correctly since I changed the o-rings...it was really bad when I tried the wrong parts and it is driveable now but when I try to tap it (even slightly) it seems to be "overpowering" to both sides... Hmmm...anyhow, I found a used one on Craigslist and he includes the following...

    1972 Plymouth Fury III. Power Steering valve body O-rings

    Pulled the valve body from the steering box to replace the o-rings.. I had bought the assortment pack from Harbor Freight. The larger O-ring was a good match but the two smaller ones didn't have a match there.. I tried some that fit but seemed too thin, though they extended a small amount above...

    Had just got the car running and only put 2 or 3 gallons while I worked on things...she ran out of gas.

    1972 Fury III ... closer to roadworthy.. now for the Transmission

    Well Fellas, I was about to pull the carb but decided to tinker a little bit first..wouldn't be cool to do it and not fix the problem...
