Re: idle rough

Cobra, Just change the CTS already and be done with the rough idle deal. You can use rubber vacuum hose to splice into whats left of the hard black plastic vacuum lines.

Re: Need help!! Pulley, belt noises

When ya get the belt off spin the pulley by hand, if its sloppy and the cause, you can just change the bearing yourself. Pop it out with a punch its shot anyways. Tap the new one in with a piece of wood or brass drift. Both tensioners have the same bearing. At least on my 90 don't know aftr that. I...

You'd have to keep the old sending apparatus for the guage to work. Remembering my 62 chevy nova that I transplanted a 396 into, it had a Hol...
