Do you have the hoses hooked up to the wrong vac port??

Or is it not still vacuum triggered?

we have the top vacuum hose hooked to the T that feeds to the two out boards and the lower port below it hooked to a vacuum advance to the distributor .  That the way it was before when it was running perfect , and thats the way every one has told me it should be  ?

[Charger-Bodie]

Thats the opposite of how we have them on the Bee and that thing runs great.

a couple years ago we worked on a real A12 road runner and it did what youres is doing, We switched them around and it was fine .....I don't remember which way it was though.

what year are your carbs?  I have a 70 and a 71 six pack car here I can take pictures of.

[moparstuart]

 71 i think cause it has the bleed off port on top of the center carb

I'm buying a vacuum pump  that seems to be what everyone says i need ( cam just too big )

  I'll let you wrench on it in a week

    Top nipple is Distributor vacuum source, bottom nipple is source for outboard carbs...

That photo just defies description.  It should likely be a poster.

Sounds like a vacuum line issue .Seen it happen on 70 a friends 6 pack charger.I have the carb number lists for the 6 packs if you need to see what you have

[moparstuart]

 mine is a 71 , I switched the lines around and it ran alttille worse .  It's just not drawing enought vaccuum

[moparstuart]

 We almost had a major set back last night . had some wiring get hot and burn the fuseble link and some starter relay wiring.  This new dash wiring harness has just been a total nightmare has way to much stuff we diodnt need and two wires rub together that where not in used and of course they where hot !!    Lots of smoke and blacked inner fender and under hood , took me a couple hours but all it taped off and rewired .  Still need to clean the black stuff off . Alcohol? maybe ?


   jeez what else will go wrong next      cant wait to find out

269.00  at summit . but they make them as expensive a 1200.00

  and if it works i think 269.00 is well worth it to have brakes !!!

vacuum pulls the carbs OPEN, so more vacuum isn't the answer?

[moparstuart]

vacuum pulls the carbs OPEN, so more vacuum isn't the answer?

the carbs are pulling 0 vaccuum because the hlp's and brakes are robbing it all

[Muscles]

What color and code is that?

[moparstuart]

are you asking about the color of the car? sublime ?

vacuum pulls the carbs OPEN

i

i  always thought vacuum keeps them closed. at heavy throttle there is less vacuum then at idle . thats why they open .

  for brakes all you would need is a dedicated vacuum cannister . my rod has a real big cam  and power brakes . go vacuum source to canister then to power brakes and secondary carbs . it has to be dedicated just to those two things   . works well. and a lot cheaper then a pump .
