[diesel_mercedes] DODGE Help Please

 


OFF TOPIC REQUEST

I have a 1979 Dodge D200 truck with 360 CID V8, automatic, Ca. emissions, AIR pump etc.

Four barrel Holly double pumper (dual float bowl) carby, a 750 CFM I *think* .

It needs carby adjusting with a sniffer as i runs out too rich at both idle and 25 MPH on the test machine .

Before that I need to find the AIR injection crossover pipe, it connects to the rear of both exhaust headers and is rusted through .

If possible I'd like some pictures or diagrams of the AIR system, there's nothing in the factory shop manual .

Actual SMOG specs would be helpful too .

If anyone can help me find a shop/garage that can clean/overhaul/adjust the carby that'd be very helpful .

Please respond OFF LIST to me here : VWNate1 (@) yahoo (.) com .

Apologize for this off topic query but it's bigger than I'm familiar with so I'm throwing out a wide net as I know many are old Dodge/Plymouth/Chrysler/DeSoto enthusiast and mechanics .

_please_ help in any way you can : leads to old dead Dodges with the crossover pipe, ideas of places to take it to for service, links to pictures or whatnot, anything will be gratefully accepted ! .

TIA,

-Nate

[diesel_mercedes] Fuel Economy Check '84 300CD Slushbox

 

K100 used, 372 miles, 19 MPG (!) .

It's running well, still smoking off and on , I don't know why the mileage has dropped so precipitously .


I have a set of overhauled and matched (within 5#)  fuel injectors headed my way right now, I guess it's time to do a compression test and install them , see if it helps .


Next step after that is : replace the injection pump, I found some rust inside it .
