Car is down again

[sblake01]

Here's a link to one on eBay right now. It's from reddat. He has good sutff but never tells you the shipping cost until you buy the item. I won't buy from him but because of that though others here have. You may want to try the number in the last post at a dealer first. If they have it or can get it, it will surely cost less than reddat's once he tacks on his unreasonable shipping. reddat's 5/77 up boot

yeah i saw that on ebay but it is the other elbow the one from the afm to the air filter pipe (i have a short ram intake) Anyone know if I could just fab one with a flex pipe or something or is the afm sensitive and would read wrong if its not the oem elbow?

I think my alternator or battery is going now though because i watched the volt meter slowly start to fall as i drove the car around the neighborhood and it died right in front of my house<lucky> i'll charge the battery and get it in the driveway to get a better look. It's like a domino effect one thing gets fixed for something else to break, im not gonna give up on it though.

The front one? I don't know if the AFM to air cleaner boot will really cause the car to act up. I've run mine with that one completely off when I'm running throttle body cleaner through the intake and the car runs fine without it.

oh, because once i wrapped it with tape it held an idle and ran until the battery/alternator? lost power. The only other things i've done recently was sand the rotor and distributer terminals, replaced the corroded autolites with seiwa plug wires, and threw in fresh ngk plugs.
