Re: [Chevelle-list] Cleaner

I had some concentrated Simple Green at work.  I mixed it 50/50 with tap water and it worked very well to clean and degrease the engine and engine compartment on my 86 Cutlass.  It also worked well to clean and shine up the chassis on my 70.   Tom

Do you mix the Simply Green or use it straight, also do you use it for dirt or grease?   I have tried Simply Green in the past, but have always had better luck with "Purple Stuff"   Keith   Simple Green does wonders.   Tom

Re: [Chevelle-list] Resulting questions HEI!

You should have ported vacuum to the distributor (no vacuum at idle), as the throttle is opened there is a vacuum drawn through the carburetor (and engine RPM's increase). This ported vacuum is then applied to the vacuum advance to advance the timing as the RPM's increase. To set the initial tim

Re: [Chevelle-list] Resulting questions HEI!

You could use a vacuum gauge to set the ignition timing. Just hook up the gauge to manifold vacuum and adjust the timing for your highest vacuum reading, tighten the distributor, remove the gauge and test drive. Easy to do with a stock or nearly stock engine, I don't know how a big cam might

RE: [Chevelle-list] Resulting questions HEI!

How do you know? Does your ear tell you that it's more advanced than what specs call for? Wouldn’t you need a light to tell you that?   I time mine "by ear" (i.e. by seeing how it runs afterward) too because there is no gauge on the timing cover. I recently found that it ran better when I

RE: [Chevelle-list] Resulting questions HEI!

I always liked to time the engine by ear and that usually meant that the engine ran best at several more degrees advanced than what the specs called for. Just watch out you don't get it so far advanced that you get pinging when accellerating under load, or make it hard to start, and I have seen

RE: [Chevelle-list] newbie

I agree with making it safe ...then reliable. I also agree with a "rolling restoration". I have done a frame-off on mine and have been at it hard for well over a year and a half and still am nowhere near driving it.   Go through the brakes first thing. If you have drums up front you may want to

Re: [Chevelle-list] newbie

You've come to the right place! In my opinion (if the car is drivable?) start with a rolling restore and enjoy the car, do what have to be done first. Do not tear the whole car down into pieces the first thing u do!   Welcome!   Pelle - Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECT

RE: [Chevelle-list] Resulting questions HEI!

The rotor will only go on one way. You need to pull the distributor out (mark where it was pointing when you pulled it), turn the shaft 180 degress, then put it back in, and make sure you have the wires on in the right order. If you are finding that it runs better with no pinging at 16-18

[Chevelle-list] Resulting questions HEI!

If I've got this right I can turn the housing back 180 degrees as long as I do the same with the rotor?   But one thing puzzles me a bit! I adjusted the advance to 10 by turning the dist housing, nothing strange with that, but she's running a bit rough when idling. Then I tried to adjust the
