    Found out what was my problem.

    Like A20, and shep said, I should have that rear vacuum port. Well, I accidently took it off to begin with and had no idea it was the port thing. Today i decided to put all the vacuum lines back in and it took me 4 hrs to put everything back in. and hooked up. Car started right up and idled better than before.

    Know i think i know why my car would start but wouldnt hold.. That port was missing, which was probly the problem. I"m going to do the secondary conversion before i go and pull all the lines and emmissions crap out again.

    YAY! I Have no backfire when i downshift.. sounds smooth... and seems to have better response.


    Thanks to MIke, Alex for their help.. i learned a ton! I should be able to do it this time.

    the missing port gave you the biggest vacuum leak next to removing the carb.

    and even more good news for you~

    you know how i am giving you my old cd player if you drive up for it?

    well you can have the old speakers too, i will simply throw them away otherwise. they are altec lansing 6.5's 2ways and they are like 10yrs old, but if you want them you can have them. 1 pair sound fine, and the other pair sounds kinda buzzy at loud levels, but i bet if you cleaned them they would be ok. more than enough speaker for the deck though!

    lmk if/when youre gonna cruise up for them!
