No, same motor, different car. I don't understand it.

Engine runs only when choked...
Daniel, I took the engine out of "Orange '72" and put it in "Jennie '73." (untill I can get the Turbo engine fixed) I did have to pull the intake and exhaust manifolds off, though. It seems like the engine is getting little to no gas. The electric fuel pump I installed today works and feeds the clear fuel filter in the engine bay. (so I know it is getting fuel.) Should I clean them anyway? It has only been 15 months scence the last time I cleaned them. What do you think? Edit: I should also mention that there is a little box on the passenger side of the fire wall, next to where the choke cables come out, that was smoking. What was this and could it be part of my problem (I don't think so, but it is worth knowing what it was)? Thanks

I have to choke the carbs in order to get the engine to run. After letting the choke off, 10 sec. later, the engine will sputter then die. What is causing this? Could the carbs be durty? I haven't touched anything on the carbs when doing the engine swap. I am very upset. :tapemouth

Radiator question...
I have been looking in the new MSA Holiday catalog and came across the Crossflow Radiator. Does it cool better than a top down stock one? I would guess the fluid stays in the cool lines longer then just flowing down with gravity? I would also like to know what some of you opinions are on the electric water pump. Thanks

Two tone concept 2
No, I got it from the Skyline 2000 GT-R toy by MuscleMachines. The body paint is more of a silver, but I think the Gray looks better.

Oh well, I needed to get rid of it. The Air Force Base will only allow 1 car per licenced driver. I'm sorry you feel that way. How do you think I felt?

electric water pump
While on the subject of cooling, does a Crossflow Radiator cool better than a top down stock one? I would guess the fluid stays in the cool lines longer then just flowing down with gravity?

Fix for Slow Wipers
I don't know about slow moving wipers, but I have one that dose not move at all. Passenger side (left drive) wiper. I will have to remove the cowl to inspect the descrepency, I don't think it is connected. Any suggestions?

mesh grill on ebay with a BIN!
What would the cost be for this grill from one of the websites?

Junkyard engine
This would also be a good time to rebuild the engine. Then you can have 0 miles on the engine and not worry about it braking down in the near future.

Broken swaybar bolt in frame
Thank you for all your comments. Carl, I am going to be putting a bigger swaybar on. It is a 1" and will be the one from the Orange car. It already has a plate made to fit. I had taken off only what I needed to get it off the car. The bolts will fit right in the stock holes.
