jholmes217 65 Report post Posted February 4, 2013 Rebuilt my 735 CFM 428 CJ Carb. Soaked the parts in Chemdip for 2 days prior (the old stuff before they made it "green" to appease the EPA would have been 2 hours.) Figure I'll try one of the NAPA rebuild kits. By the way CJ owners, if you buy a CJ rebuild kit from CJ Pony parts, they will send you a NAPA kit, not the Holley kit. Probably cheaper to just got to NAPA and buy it even with free shipping. Yesterday I glass beaded the crank and water pump pulleys and the alternator brackets and repainted them semi-gloss black with Duplicolor. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
afret 37 Report post Posted February 4, 2013 Going to a bigger electric water pump. Part of where the fuel pump mounts on the timing cover will interfere with the radiator hose. Decided to just cut off part of the mount on the timing cover to make room for the hose. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That piece that goes underneath the rear end to reduce lift :D Something like this: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ashleesmach1 28 Report post Posted February 6, 2013 my plan is to replace the pedals today. wish me luck I replaced the parking brake and trim, No problems, easypeasy! I replaced the original brake pedal. It fell apart in my hand as I was removing it. 40+ years and all, no wonder. The new pedal went on great but the new trim piece- wrong! not long enough, I re-used the original one, it was in great shape. I saw that the original gas pedal was hard plastic with a trim piece. I could not find anywhere a repro with the trim on it. So I installed a 65-66 pedal with trim. It is a metal pedal with a rubber foot pad and it has a trim piece attached. To me, much better quality. The mount is wider and it has two holes for the attachment screw. The original screw would not go through the smaller of the two holes. So I opened it up with a drill bit sightly larger than 13/64. The spring now attaches inside the mount instead outside the mount as it was originally attached. Cool huh! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
