Im glad to see no old ladies or Eagles were harmed in the production of this post.

nope just some tires.

after i finished replacing the return fuel line on Eagle Eyes which was the original by the way and had fired her up to make sure there were no leaks, i started to put the air cleaner back on and every time i moved the air cleaner the idle would change so i took the air cleaner back off and found out that the four screws that hold the carb to the manifold were super loose.

That might be whats making bluebird idle wierd!....thanks for the idea Maddog!....I would not have thought about checking that out.

the sad part is the fact that it was like that when we met up at the junkyard a few weeks ago i just never put two and two together.

Sounds like time for a new gasket and a touch of blue thread lock on those studs and nuts

the sad part is the fact that she runs as well as she does with it like that.

:)That's because it's made in America!

Its also cuz its an AMC....AMC cut class that day when they taught the other big 3 auto makers they shouldnt run when the carb is nearly detatched...LOL

maddog · June 20, 2011, 12:33:29 AM

that explains a lot.

and to think it still has the original carter on it to. i guess can say i have BAD

AMC Eagle.

shanebo · June 20, 2011, 12:51:37 AM

If it has a

symbol on it certainly qualifies as bad

!!

maddog · June 20, 2011, 01:08:33 AM

on it qualifies as bad
