I pulled the metering rod from my AVS2 Edelbrock 650. It has the number 7037 on it. I can’t find any info on it. Is that a part number? What metering rod would 1 step larger and smaller?

opps 5/16

When I replaced my fuel pump I also replace my fuel filter. I realized the filter was 1/4" not 3/16". I now have 3/16" filter and I replaced all spark plugs. To make sure I didn't have any internal mechanical problems I did a compression check and I'm pretty much running 150 lbs all the way...

No clatter or engine noise of any kind, I'll check plugs first.

I had just finished a low and slow drive down Grand in Escondido CA. Opening of Crusin Grand. Anyway, the temp went up a little nothing to worry about. On the way home I decided to open it up a little, so when it was safe, I stepped into it. As the revs built, it sounded like it was popping...

Never noticed that. When I got the seats the covers were already there, I replaced the insides only

I forgot to mention, the seat belts are included

Excellent condition. Came out of my 67 Satellite, I rebuilt them myself, all new seats buns. The pdf attached here shows my complete rebuild process. Near San Diego. Not sure about shipping, I'm looking into that now. $850 for the pair, does not include shipping.

Yeah, I just replaced the filler hose, there's actually an aluminum 90 deg piece in there, you can kinda see it. I ground the piece to create a pretty tight fit so the rubber coupling is seeing very little gas. Who knows the history, is the filler pipe supposed to be all metal?

See attached picture. According to the service manual this line is the intermediate filling vent tube, connected with a keystone clamp. When I gas up, fuel leaks from this connector. Do I just replace the connector or is something else going on?

67 Satellite, drums all the way around.

I guess some air snuck into the other side. I have to replace that cylinder too, so I'll bleed both sides.

Yeah, there fine, my bad, they are staying properly torqued...

I replaced the drivers rear wheel cylinder and tried to bleed it with a vacuum pump. But I still have air in the line. I'll try again, but what is this device on the rear axle housing? See arrow... Does this prevent vacuum bleeding or do I need to use the "pump the brakes and open the...

I've stated before, the lug nuts do NOT extend past the mounting face of the rim, I'm certain the nuts I'm using are correct for my rims. I haven't had a chance to take the wheel off and inspect the studs.
