@@ViperMods_216 I know at the time when I had originally got them BBK was fairly good with the 5.0 Mustangs so I figured they couldn’t be too bad for a lower cost Set of headers on a stock application. Learn my lesson there lol

@PhobicsGarage its a shame. They can't even put a scavenger spike in

@@ViperMods_216 Agree, but with them being a short tube and un-equal length It would probably do more harm then good, plus with the O2 right there. Where as a long tube they do offer benefits depending on the combination. but that's just my 2cts

One of the few nice things with the 71-74 b-bodies

Thanks

@@dankrzeminski6370 I’m sure it will depend upon how your shop is set up. For me i move around with the tig. Not strictly bench work. If im tacking a set of custom headers on a car the machine is at least 10m away from me

The single tabs on the ends are always pointing to each other or inwards.

The spring blocks the tabs point inwards or face each other. facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=919599949969513&set=p.919599949969513&type=3

Glad it was helpful!

Your welcome, I have been in that frustration boat before. You might also want to check the fuel transfer channel in the base plate. If its plugged (blocked) you might also be fighting with a 4 corner idle base plate

@@PhobicsGarage I'm working with 2 4780-2 carbs. They only have idle screws in the primary metering blocks. The rear metering blocks have removable jets, holes in the side of the blocks but not drilled through or threaded for screws The throttle body shafts are not loose. Both throttle bodies work on the good carb. The primary butterfly is not drilled with a small hole on either. The power valve circuit is plugged. One carb is perfect. My test bed engine is a 70 boss 302 engine. I've done, rebuilt more than 100 carbs of different sizes and tested them on this engine. The carbs had been sitting on a 1964 Ford 427 for I don't know how many years. I bought the car and engine from a lawyer in San Diego and he didn't know how long it had been sitting either. No rust damage, but you can tell it had been in dry storage along time. Carbs are not dirty. I've cleaned them out and the like. He buys sells get deals on cars, at the right place kind of thing, has many connections, that sort of thing. Does it as a hobby. Nice guy. But he doesn't know that much about cars. The only thing I can do maybe at this point is change the main body. But haven't found one yet.

@@jesse75 with out knowing what the carb is doing im spitballing here but if you swap everything around and narrow it to the main body you have you checked the air bleeds in the carb body with a wire to make sure they are not plugged.

@@PhobicsGarage slight shakey idle and a stumble when giving it some gas. All holes are blown out with carb cleaner and compressed air. Spraying that WD 40 on the outside doesn't effect idle or throttle. I assemble all my carbs with chapstick. So that I can take them apart with out gasket damage. Nothing leaks or drips while idle, I've stared down the carb. Has to be something in the main body, because all the other parts work the same.. I've mixed matched them every which way. Has me stumped.

@@jesse75 stumbling off idle is usually with the accelerator pump side. That body have a transfer tube for the pump from the metering block to the body? I would grab some pin drills and verify both carb bodies have the same idle air bleed sizes. Primary and secondary

Thank you

I’m not saying it’s a bad deal but it will need to be fixed to work properly and limited to 4 corner idle carbs.

Its not a bad welding cart. After dragging it around the shop it does have its quirks. The pull handles flex a bunch and I would be leary on having a bottle bigger then an 80 on it.

There should be a bolt by the drive wheels on the side that holds the wire

Thank You

An external mic is in my future

I watched your short, mine does not jump like that. Out of curiosity does it react the same way if you drop the voltage down to 16v, and are you on 120 or 220v

@@PhobicsGarage thanks for the reply back, I messed with it 3-4 hours before I had to get ready to go out of town for work but the wire speed goes in increments of 4-6 no matter what which not really a big deal as far as welding but 99% of people who have same machine say there’s does bot for it yet primeweld said “it’s not supposed to do it we are sending you one to warranty it” then 2 days later he says he was wrong it’s set up like that but if it is why is it one of only ones doing it lol I only got a chance to mess with it on 110, I even got blocked from there group for asking if anybody had same issue wasn’t bashing primeweld just want a good machine so I can enjoy it like everybody else that’s whole reason I been wanting one all positive reviews unless the bad ones get blocked and deleted is why it’s all good 🤣 been over a week and still don’t know what there going to do about it but not looking like they want to replace it hard to deal with it working 12-14 hour days 10+ hours from home 🤣

Did you ever get a resolution on your MiG 180? Mine changes in increments of four also.

@@johnkilpatrick3003 I gave up after a month of trying and messing with it mine goes by 3-4-8 just varies was told that’s normal but almost impossible to set it lol mine also on MiG/flux will make one ok weld then next 10 welds worse then a $99 harbor freight special but welds awesome on stuck setting and can set it easy, main thing killed it for me was being blocked from there group for trying to figure out what was going on before going to them, guy I work with has one he bought 6-7 months before I got one and his welds perfect and no problem setting it do it’s obviously something in the circuit board or something, but before I went out of town to work I had it all ready because guy was supposed to warranty it considered I had it 2 days and it’s a lemon so I had it all took apart and ready for a friend of mine to just stick it in his and send it back but they messaged 2-3 days later saying it’s supposed to do that but out of all the migs I own none do it and other issues were fixed instantly not back tracking on what was told and blocked from there group for only asking a question I wasn’t even talking bad about primeweld just wanted a machine that works right but being in another state working for months I gave up trying got more important issues then a junk welder but very disappointing, I have 10+ messages from guys had similar problems when having a problem and was deletes from there group also

Thanks for the update.

is it do or did lol

I Plan to get back on the elco project hopefully by the end of the month

Cool always liked those. Hopefully soon I’ll be getting back on the 70

You could probably convert it to this style. tinyurl.com/ycyfd6we the original discon part number is 111929 - HUB,SPOOL

Yes

Lo siento, no, la máquina no está a la venta.

I have lit the torch down at 5 amps and done some practice passes, well more like will it do it and it did

@@PhobicsGarage Yeah I just saw another video where it started at 5 amps. I was referring the specs say its only goes down to 10 amps. 5 amps is a bargain. I'm getting one!

Correct. I did my initial testing on a 30a 220v circuit I use for my mig and it held till i got up to 200amps then the breaker tripped. Hopefully health permitting I will get the proper circuit run and can get part 2 the testing at higher amps done.

I do not have their MIG285 so I can say on that but I would think it should be adjustable individually, it is a multi process machine (mig,lift tig,stick) so it is possible there is a manual setting one has to scroll to.

Sorry, but thanks for watching.

It's ok that you don't understand lol

Thanks

Removing the choke horn section of the carb is done for different reasons, one is allowing clearance for low profile air cleaners in tight under hood situations, the other main one is better flow to the venturies but if done wrong it can mess with the booster signals (look at many of the aftermarket carb bodies and race carbs) If you are not a long time carb tuner its usually better to just buy an aftermarket body with it already removed and smoothed out. If curiosity really gets you David Vizard's How to Super Tune and Modify Holley Carburetors covers a bunch of info on the topic.

Thanks, cars slowly getting there. I am waiting for the comments on the engine color, the owner likes the blue and personally I prefer it over the pont blue/green.

My son painted his 326 Kubota orange and people say "Oh, you swapped in a small block Chevy". Uhhhh, no.

@@allhailinternalcombustion haha

Your welcome, its crude but it works lol

Your very welcome

Thanks, I subscribed back

Thank you

The instructions do not mention it but I did fill mine with sand.

@@PhobicsGarage does it make any difference?

@@afhamajmal8632 It stops some vibrations but mostly cuts down a ringing noise when using

@@PhobicsGarage nice! Thanks!

2.651 but I would tq the rear main cap down and see what your block is I cheated and used my BHJ rings to get me close and then had to shave a few 10ths to get proper fit. My seal adapter id was 2.770 hopefully this helps

not sure on the current price, I picked it up on xmas sale and had a discount coupon

@crazycuda Don't be too excited about that one. They put so much complicated electronics and completely idiotic settings, that it's gonna be their greatest failure. I was really ready and waiting till it comes out. Wanted to buy it immediately. After watching the review from AM custom fab, absolutely not. Unless they fix the issues with it.

@@luboshcamber1992 I saw that review, after my comment. The spot weld feature and higher amps are the 2 things that got my interest. Reality set in and I should just get another tig to replace my dead one.

@@PhobicsGarage That's my plan, God willing by the Fall as well. Their tig ac/dc 225 is fantastic. I look forward to have it. Meanwhile I'm buying their mig 185, it will do the trick for me for now. With a bit of prep it can do 1/2 steel single pass and that's good for me for now. And it comes with the spool gun and fantastic customer support. I totally hope they will listen to their customers (as they have been so far) and will simplify mig 285 and I will surely buy it. I am not the only one complaining about it. Thanks for the review and feedback, keep up the good work and God bless.

I do not understand your question.

I have had no complaints with the machine, For my purposes IF I had to buy again I would probably go for the bigger 200A+ machine, because I keep getting people wanting me to weld 1/2" plate and I hate doing multi pass welding.

Unfortunately you will see in the next video the roof has more hidden rot holes from old butcher repairs that I never knew was there.

If its the 3 teir one HF has I have one of those too. not strong enough to hold my old miller transformer based welder. But it does hold my tig welder and small tank ok. Mine is thin on the sheet metal frame so it flexes a bunch when you go to move it

Thanks on the charger, I am personally not a fan of flux core, I hate the smoke, I have always run 75/25 mix

If you hit the trigger and it clicks but nothing else its possible the drive motor went bad. www.millerwelds.com/files/owners-manuals/T1324D_PT_MIL.pdf

I had same issue a while back. My issue was a non-issue Solution from User Guide: Voltage Switch (5 Position)  Switch must “click” into detent position 1, 2, 3, or 4 for proper contact. Mine was in the middle of 2-3. no flow. Hope this helps someone.

Hey, my Millermatic 130 does the same thing, powers on, relay click, but the feeder wheel wont spin. Did you get yours to work?

@@tubeyoujr ya but I can't really remember what I did I think I unplugged the feeder relay and plugged it back it

I recently dropped the tank and it was not there either, so now comes the decode the id plate on the firewall.

That sounds like a bunch of work, but a have seen probably 30 years ago now a cutlass with a Chevelle front clip and it looked almost factory

LOL, I'm thinking of calling it 70 rustmino

lol

Thanks, I also have a 77ss . I kinda have a weak spot for the el's

@@PhobicsGarage Nice. I love the big boaty 70's cars. I had a beautiful 73 El Camino that ran 12's all night long back in the late 80's. At the time my wife was jealous of the car.....so I got rid of it. In hindsight........oh well, live and learn.
