Must have been a '93. A '94 would have had a 4L60E, and wouldn't have a snowball's chance without an aftermarket controller or the '94 ECM.

At least you codes should be cleared. Float-type chargers are inexpensive, and help batteries live long lives in storage.

It should work either way. Regardless, you may have to adjust the lean and rich stops once it is assembled, installed, and you are tuning it.

If this is an auto trans car, the ECM is still necessary to operate the TCC relay. It also operates the fan.

Your "CHECK ENGINE" light is trying to tell you something. All you need to do is listen. The stored error code(s) may help you find the source of the problem(s). The ALDL connector is under the center console ash tray. Shorting the leftmost two pins invokes Field Service Mode. WITHOUT...

Turn off the ignition for at least 20 seconds. While monitoring the "SES" lamp, turn the ignition to RUN (do not crank the engine). Watch teh lamp closely on power-up. It should illuminate briefly, extinguish briefly, the illuminate and remain that way until the engine is started. YHou've...

And some of the older 4MVs would have had a dashpot for installation on a manual trans car. Beyond that, I think "wish" is exactly right.

You can likely find a nearly complete TPI system on eBay, www.ThirdGen.org classified section, or several other sites. The information on Bernie's site (www.sethirdgen.org) is very good. Presuming this is going on top of a 350, you may want to lean toward a speed/density system (1990-later) as...

Well, that is informative. So much for integrity. FWIW, the only '67 427 I'm aware of is genuine (stock as a rock except for tires and brake pads), does have a PowerGlide and three Holleys, and isn't for sale. I think the guy has a pretty good idea of the value.

The only significant difference betwen that QuadraJet and your's would be the secondary A/V stop. The B-Car model would have a secondary stop that limits the secondary AV opening, wheras your original QuadraJet should not have this limiter. That's an easy fix.

Thanks for the info and the link. I should have known to poke around the board a bit more. Having moderated a rather busy tech site myself, I should have looked first. It's good to hear that at least two of you have gone the way of the roller, and have had success. Given the potential early...

I'm doing some research for an acquaintance. I've performed a couple of unproductive searches, and hope that someone here can give me details or direction. The car in question is a '67 convertible, 427 L36 (sub-code JD) with 3-two barrel H2600s and a Powerglide. The car is bone stock (show...

Of course, adjusting the TPS position (and subsequent voltage) will be a lot easier (i.e., "possible") if you have the proper adjustment tool. I like the OTC set, P/N 7667, about $20.

Cake. Very simple and straightforward, and no real tricks like on the ThermoQuads. One thing to watch is leakage from the lower main well plugs. It's also a good time to check wear in teh throttle shaft and align the plates. About the only special things you'll need on an E4ME are teh 2mm...

Welcome Aboard! Now shut the door, strap in, and hang on....
