Re: [Chevelle-list] Ignition Switch Wiring
RJ, Double check the wiring on the ignition solenoid, if it is stuck or mis-wired, it can energize the starter when ignition power is applied. -- Shawn Price Network Team Lead Technology Solutions Morrison Homes 404-427-8229 On May 28, 2005, at 1:03 AM, Crazy Rusty wrote: x-tad-biggerIs the ignition switch positioned correctly?

RE: [Chevelle-list] Ignition Switch Wiring
The switch is actually on the dash and has only one way of fitting in place. We replaced the switch and still got the same results. Same with the starter solenoid.

Re: [Chevelle-list] Ignition Switch Wiring
It sounds like there is a 12v ignition source connected to the spot on the solenoid there the ignition only 12v source should be... time to get out the test light and trace those down. -- Shawn Price Network Team Lead Technology Solutions Morrison Homes 404-427-8229 On May 28, 2005, at 9:05 AM, RJ Winkler wrote: x-tad-biggerThe switch is actually on the dash and has only one way of fitting in place.

Re: [Chevelle-list] Ignition Switch Wiring
there are two small plug on wires on the solenoid,one has power for coil in ignition position,the other has power in start position.try switching those two around.
[Chevelle-list] Edelbrock Parts
Anyone know if you can get the O-rings that seal the chamber where the regular, in-carb, fuel filter goes? Specifically I have an 850cfm Performer carb. I totally gnashed my current one up beyond recognition so Im not sure what to replace it with. Since it seems every store I call is closed, I thought maybe someone on here would know. Thanks! JB
RE: [Chevelle-list] Edelbrock Parts
You can buy a bag of assorted size O-rings at any auto parts store for a few bucks.

[Chevelle-list] Crazy weather today
Not very nice weather today. The pictures are the view from my garage today around 4:00pm. Lots of hail. Look at it coming out of the down spout on the house. My hot rod was covered at one point. http://home.golden.net/~benj/84820580.jpg http://home.golden.net/~benj/85920580.jpg http://home.golden.net/~benj/85b20580.jpg Dave Ingersoll,Ontario My web site: http://members.tripod.com/benj30/

Re: [Chevelle-list] mountain passes
James Colgan wrote: I think you would want to lean out the fuel mixture the higher you go . because the air gets thinner. less air less fuel.:) Is that true? I've never understood how it works. I have the idea that leaning it out gives you better mpg but costs you in power, and the problem with mountain passes is that you lose horsepower the higher you go. So I'm thorougly confused. (Nothing new).
