    How do you plug a hole?

    lol, thanks for the help guys. It's not that I didn't get it, it's that I wasn't confident that you understood what I was talking about. Only 2 people actually knew about the old Thermactor crap I have. Anyways, I'll go to the hardware store, buy some big-a$$ washers to cover the holes and...

    How do you plug a hole?

    I've just finished digging through their site. No luck. Just consistently pulling up 3 different types of "auto to manual" kits they sell.

    How do you plug a hole?

    I'm glad someone's finally familiar with what I'm talking about! I'm having difficulty locating an electric choke that I can just add on to my 2V. By capping off the fitting at the bottom of the existing choke, I'm not accomplishing much. I'd assume that the electric choke kit would consist...

    How do you plug a hole?

    but that's the problem... I have all of that pulled up, but there is NO "delete selected items" button ANYWHERE on the page. Just "Show thumbnails".. that's it. Is there a problem with my account? Do I have to have a certain amount of posts or something? This is retarded. :notnice: -Tim

    How do you plug a hole?

    If someone can explain to me how I can delete my old attachments so that I can make room for the new ones...? Even in "User CP" when I click attachments, there isn't a delete option. -Tim

    How do you plug a hole?

    And no, the holes are on the cylinder heads... on the passenger side it's on the side above the spark plugs but all the way towards the front. On the driver's side it's above the spark plugs also, but all the way to the back of the side. -Tim

    How do you plug a hole?

    Actually guys, you all keep rolling your eyes at me and saying use a threaded brass plug, etc. But the hole is NOT threaded. It's a smooth surface for the rubber plug but a small screw goes through the center of it and holds it in from the far back of the hole. Take a look. Bottom line: If...

    Automatic Choke System - Carb Experts HELP!

    How exactly does an electric choke work? I'll go and buy a 4bbl immediately since I'd like to upgrade and it would fix my problem. But don't I need to change my intake also? Then the problem becomes finding an intake that has the stupid hole for the emissions pump thing on the back...

    Automatic Choke System - Carb Experts HELP!

    HAH! I narrowed down my problem. When I installed long tube Tri-Y headers onto my 289 2V I had to remove two air hose lines that were installed from my passenger side exhaust manifold to my Automatic Choke System on my carburetor! The way it works is that the choke is on when I start the...

    How do you plug a hole?

    When you guys say "EGR" I have no idea what you're talking about. I'm talking about this "Thermactor Exhaust Emissions" option that my car has. The Ford manual states this under cylinder heads: "On engines equipped with a thermactor exhaust emission control system, drilled passages within...

    Transmission swap from hell... speedo issue

    I swapped my 3-speed manual for a 4-speed a few weeks ago and everything went relatively smoothly for me. But after I installed the speedometer cable that was on the driver's side of the 3-speed into the hole on the passenger's side of the 4-speed... the speedometer didn't work anymore...

    How do you plug a hole?

    Simple Question... I have a hole in each cylinder head on the side and a hole on the top rear of the intake manifold where a bunch of stupid emissions stuff used to be that I took off..... How do I plug these holes?? I've looked online but I can't find any plugs made for that sort of thing...

    Fastback is at the exhaust shop right now..

    The hardest part was not flipping out and damaging a part of my car... lol On the driver's side I had to disconnect a bunch of hoses that my car has for emissions crap that I plan on removing later anyways. I didn't need to remove my spark plugs, just the wires. Sliding it in from the top...
