101. HIF4 idle speed (score: 1)
Author: Craig Wiper <craigw@sonic.net>

Hi. Now that I've got the HIF4's on the B, that nagging high-idle speed has come back. Backing the idle-adjust screws all the way back doesn't help. The butterfly's can still be pushed by hand and cl

Jacques. Does this car have an inverted oil filter? My '74 does. And consequently, when the engine is first started, the oil that has left the filter as the car sat idle has to be refilled before the

My cable is not the problem. It has plenty of slack at idle. The linkage doesn't even engage for about 1/16-1/8 of an inch when I hit the pedal. So, the carbs are closing on their own even before I'v

Hi Ron. My B has done the same thing off and on. But, when I've noticed that kind of smell, I'd check the oil filler cap and sure enough, there would be a slimy green sludge on it, meaning I was gett

In my opinion, it's easier to leave that to the pros and just buy a new pair. The amount of time you save by not doing it yourself will outweigh the cost. New shocks don't cost that much. The same go
