The ending was so appropriate to my experience. I hardly drive mine and as a result, I live to fix one thing, drive it, and then something else breaks; very frustrating!
😂😂 I remember mum's Z28 doing that! She pulled into a petrol station to get petrol, great clouds of steam billowed out the front wheel arches & vents!!! Breakdown came out, sorted the hose so we could get to a garage. Got to the garage, parked him up, told them the problem, went back outside, green water in a lake under the front trickling down a drain. Anti freeze!!! The neck of the radiator split🙄🤣🤣. Being in Britain in the 80's, it was rather hard to get basic parts like exhausts etc, nevermind a massive radiator. So, he was patched up with good old Radweld until one could be found!!!!! You can't beat a Chevy for a quirky, & expensive, sense of humour!!!
Gotta hand it to enthusiasts who own American cars in Europe and other countries. In the U.S. we take replacement parts for granted. Just go to one of the local auto part stores to get one or order online for (usually) next day delivery. Outside of the U.S. (and most-likely Canada), most of these parts qualify as unobtanium, and I’ve also heard about absurd shipping charges plus high custom’s fees, to add insult to injury. I sure hope it’s worth it. Lol 🤦🏻♂️😆👍🏻
Not a carb guy … my 75 fast idle is about 1600 rpm’s per emission stick from factory . I think it’s a little high .. can I just turn the fast idle screw down or do I have to adjust fast idle cam as well thanks .. sorry about ur rad hose 😩
1600 rpm sounds about right. And the moment you hit the gas pedal it should go down to anywhere between 1000 and 1200. Once temp gets high enough it should transition to curb idle when you hit the gas again. And yes, you can adjust the fast idle speed by turning the screw in small increments. 😊👍🏻
