David, I need help also.

 Here is the deal.  On cold mornings and it just started doing this it wants to idle a little then wants to choke out and die. the only way I can keep this from happenin is to keep the gas down. It doesn't do it on warm days. Then when i run it , it runs soo smooth without a problem except when i downshift real hard she back fires.. Like one good time.. And also I have noticed that she floods out when hot.. I mean if I run her and then come back after say about 10 min she will start just fine. anything after that and she doesn't want to start you have to hold the gas and of course this causes some of the flooding. And in the cold morning deal she just throws raw fuel out of the pipes. I mean not in liquid form but smoke form. I mean because all you smell is smoke.. I wished you could help me. I can bring the bug to you because all and all it runs great.. Please help.. And another thing does anyone know where i can get this car painted and have some minor body work done on it without it costing me a arm and a leg???            

        Thanks  please help me fix my bug ......

hey there david, i forgot to tell you the things i have done to this car,

  brand new bocar 34 3 carb, pertronix ignitor, front wheel bearings and front brake shoes with spring kit, brand new center tie rod and inner and outer tie rods, and brand new tires.. Thanks

71 S.B. and I had a long talk about 009 v 34-3  .He is going to replace the 009 with a vac. unit.  Cheaper than "junking " a brand new carb.

Hey there man,

Well hello there david,

  I am going to need to know if you came across a dizzy yet? I have one i can buy right now, dual vaccum came off a 72 super...  He said it works great but i need to get the money to him asap.. So he doesn't sell it to anyone else.. i am getting it at a great price too. anyway did the bearings come in??? If not when do ya think they might??? I miss my bug and can't wait to drive it again. I am going to put a brand new seal in the firewall over the tranny, and a new engine compartment seal... When do ya think we can have her up and running again? Sorry to pester you but I miss my bug.. Take care mr. david. and many thanks    


      Aaron    

sure thing. you still have that money for the other dizzy i assume. just use that for some of that bottom end engine work....that will leave me owing ya 200 or a little over then.. I will order the dizzy and he said it comes with points and condensor.. but i will buy new if need be.

Aaron, Monday is not a good day. I still have to go get your bearings today. They sent .020 size Friday and not .010. They will not be here until  about noon.  This would not give us enough time to do hardly anything. I will put the case together Tuesday and save the rest for you.Doing it this way will speed up things because we have to deal with the tranny still. I will "walk" you through the rest. That will take long enough seeing this is your #1 shot.

Your plugs look new . We can use them if you want too. Your Bently book is far better. Somtimes the Haynes Books can lead you down the" Garden Path"
