Whew! Finaly got this jeep running again. Seems like the "experts" who rebuilt my carb but on the wrong choke coil. I popped in a replacement and threw in a fresh tank of gas and shes running alright. I'm posting some pictures of this work in progress, and a few questions any help would be greatly appreciated.
Heres a pic of the engine bay. Most all of the vacuum hoses have been replaced. The air cleaner has been bolted down (it was just dancing throughout the engine bay when i purchased it), but i'm planning to paint it later.
Heres a pic of the rebuilt carb:
This is a picture of a vacuum hose that has suction, but no home. Any help with reuniting this poor lost soul would be greatly appreciated.
This is a shot of the wiring harness i rebuilt. Notice the burnt hose extending from between the harness and the red hose? This burnt hose goes directly into the rear of the valve cover, where its supposed to connect to before that, is a mystery to me.
I'm still having problems getting the air to fuel mixture exactly correct. She starts up fine usually after shes warm, but gives a tough time starting in the cold. The smog test says shes running rich so i've got much more fun ahead of me. Does any one know where the marks on the choke normally should be lined up? Thanks!
