Re: 292 Questions
The first image appears to be a late 235 engine, early ones rarely had PCV's and it was added to the road draft tube, they discovered that caused too much oil to be sucked in so they changed it to the rockerbox .
Now you know what you need and what to do , right ? .

Re: 292 Questions
Yup. PO rigged the PCV valve to the vent hose. Should have left it in the baffled hole at the back on top. It wouldn't have been sucking oil into the engine. Time we're all done he'll have it all done right!

I went back and found a thread actually that you started (Going back to Points -- L6 292) and you said you dropped your gap to .010 to get a good dwell. I did the same and got 33 degrees, since I have new points I believe ill have to readjust due to the new pad wearing breaking in. So i think we are good there. I reset the timing to about 12 degrees advance. Now I am able to get it going maybe about 5 mph and it wants to give out if I give it anymore gas, starts studdering like its going to die and if I let off the gas pedal it comes back to a steady idle. Its getting too much gas at this point? Is it at this point i would adjust the fast idle? and leave the idle screw alone? This is obviously the first experience with a truck carb. A lot less smoke BTW |
