When I mentioned several months ago about the trouble I was having trying to get my Commodore Blue V6 to idle..... There were many many ideas, suggestions,etc floated for me to do.
All good advice!
I tried them all or atleast attempted.
Three new Holley 390's installed and two new different ign systems installed, Checked vacuum leaks - NONE!
Timing verified several times. Actually pulled the Timing cover aagaaain
Valves adjusted atleast three times!
My FORD Expert kept saying I had a timing problem and kept referring to the cam .....
After I came to the end of all suggestions and ideas I did what I should have from the beginning (Just did not think of it) and called Delta Cams.
I made the statement My car will not idle below 1250 + RPM's and I was told "IT WILL NOT IDLE BELOW 900 at all because it has NO VACUUM because it is a FULL RACE CAM"!!!
When I posted that! A short time later some began to mention their s would not idle well or it was not good around town etc.,
Well ain't that nice! I've tried to live with this cam for more than a year now.
And still am trying to "fix - it" some way.
I have bragged that it pulls from about 25K upward enormously well!
But it ain't for Crusin' around town.
I am building three more of the V6's at present, Guess What?
Thanks for the POST
