Hey thank you for the reply and info.
I appreciate your time.
I did do everything on your list except the fuel pressure.
Visually the throttle bodies look as if the fuel supply is plentiful.
Someone mentioned that the intake gasket might come loose under the center plate on the intake...
Thank you for the response.
I just did a compression test and all cylinders were close.
The heads were my first thought. Someone mentioned a piston pin.
I'm probably going to pull the heads and have them resurfaced.

Thanks for the reply.... I'm old school with the carb description. :)
I was thinking it would be serious as in gasket.
Do you know a formula for checking.
Visually it looks good.
Thank you so much

My 82 C3 with crossfire injection is popping through the carb. It runs smooth during idle and low acceleration, but under torque or high rpm the engine runs rough and shows a compression backfire with no flames through the carb.
My thought... intake gasket, lifter, head gasket.
Any...
I have made allot of good changes to my C3 engine in the last couple of weeks.
Should I disconnect the battery to perhaps reset the on board computer/processor?
Thank you

The switch was physically there. The vacuum side of the switch leaked and the electrical contacts created a short.
The unit looked original from 82

Thank you for the reply.
I did replace the switch with the electrical contact for the disengage. I checked it and it is properly working through the wiring diagram. Now I'm checking the cruise brake release valve. I ran a vacuum check and it seems to lack the ability to hold pressure.
I'm...
Hi again.....I had to take a break from working on the vet to work.
Now I Habs time to continue with my cc problem.
I have check all of the electrical connections from the switch to the cc unit a day all is well. I have replaced the brake switch too. I noticed that when I was checking the...
Has anyone changed a rear main engine seal without removing the ENGINE?
My concern is re installing the oil pump shafts correctly.
Thank you

Help.
MY 82 c3 has never had an operating cruise control. The switch seems to work work via tester and the servo holds vacum. I did install a new transducer also. All hoses are going to the right areas.
There is a small solenoid on the top of the transducer that someone mentioned that it is...
I had the injectors off axis. There are 2 way that they can mount. It is like a 10 degree rotation offset. Everything came together after I made that change.
Thank you for the response and suggestion.

Ok. ..here is my solution.
I did use a razor blade to separate the vertical edges of the trim. The rest of the removal was done with a Dremel tool with a sanding drum. The
compound was as hard as tire rubber. It took awhile but the results were good.
Goo gone didn't do much because the...
Thank you Bill. This adhesive has cured hard. It is so old that it is no longer pliable. I read an article on using Goo Gone to help restore it. That is my next step. I'll keep you updated and please let me know if you have any other suggestions.
Thank you

Would anybody know how to remove the old black silicone material under the weather stripping on the t tops. I need to remove this to apply my new weather stripping.
Thank you

I just finished rebuilding my carbs on my crossfire.
The vehicle starts and runs better but the rpm is holding around 1500. Even when the engine is up to temp.
Any ideas please.
Thank you
