I'm learning from you guys!!
I was the first to post an answer to ZOERA's question on 6-11, I was using settings that I had used back in the late 60's/early 70's when I was messing w/FE's then. I've been away from FE's for awhile (to the dark side). I'm learning and benefitting from all of the rest of your posts!
I'm experiencing some "dieseling" occasionally, and warmer than expected temps at idle; I was second-guessing my thermostat, radiator size, electric fan turn on, etc. Now, I'm going to change the bushing in my MSD (again!), increase my initial, and adjust the carb idle speed screw to close the butterflies a little. At least I've got the right springs in the distr. But change is a good thing, I'm going in the right direction, thanks to the info from all you FE guru's!!
