    I've been poking around here a lot but haven't quite found an answer to my problem. My old Cj-7 was running great, took her in to get the fluids changed (tranny, oil, diffs) and then she started bogging / bucking. I have driven it for a while this way and concluded that the issue only happens...

    Rebuilt non-feedback Carter BBD, idle tubes clear, timing at 8 degrees, mixture screws 2.75 out, choke and high idle cam set, choke pull off working, initial choke clearance correct, exhaust routed side corner, Team Rush and Nuttered. This 258 still stinks! I believed the smell meant the...

    First post. Learned from Jeep Hammer, John Strenk, Mike Romain and many more. 83 CJ-5, 258 w/Carter BBD. No idle - so replaced carb with professionally remaned non-stepper BBD, also replaced coil, ICM, and completed team rush ignition upgrade. Choke works fine. Idle tubes clear. Canister...

    Hey all, I was tinkering today and decided to put the vacuum advance hose on my distributor (I have Teamrush ignition). My engine ran fine without the advance at all speeds, no misfires, for several months now. All unused vacuum ports are capped, and it seems to run a bit rich, leading me to...

    Ok I'm totally lost here and this is my SOS/distress call. My 81 CJ7 258 somehow has a Carter BBD without the stepper motor, no computer, etc. My problem is, I'm trying to hook up the vacuum lines as proper as I can, but when i try to follow the diagrams I found online im missing some of the...

    Hey guys I made a previous post http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f8/81-cj7-clifford-258-engine-flutter-1539175/ about an engine flutter I had been having. After preforming a "Team Rush" Upgrade and getting positive results but not much improvement with the idle flutter and doing some research I...

    '87 4.2 Lost the screw that connects the choke pull off linkage to the choke rod. Is it a standard screw? Having trouble finding a screw that feels right. (that might be a whole different subject:cheers2:) Thanks in advance. Jim

    Hello guys, this is my first post! Love the community you guys have built up here! Anyway I just recently bought a 81 CJ7 with a Clifford 258and have noticed that when idling and and when the engine is at specific rpms (mostly on the higher end) that the engine flutters a little and there is a...

    I have an '83 CJ 7 that has the computer controlled Carter 2bbl carb. I have experienced all the problems that seem to accompany this particular set up. I am planning on replacing the hoses and tackling the venturi cleaning that I have seen several places on line. But in the event that does...

    I have posted a few things on the forum but it looks like it's time to put up more pics of the CJ I have started on. It belonged to one of my brothers for a long time and has been sitting for years now. He sold it to my dad, kinda hoping dad would fix it up and give it back to him, and dad...

    Anyone know where I can get the screw that is missing? What size is it? Anything else missing? Looks like it. It holds the mechanism for the choke. Thanks. :thumbsup: Also, should I put lock-tight on it when I get one? Obviously they can come out if not . . . . :laugh:
  13. Engines & Drivetrain
    Hey guys— can anyone explain to me just how throttle plate deposits interfere with carb functioning, in mechanical detail? I'm about to rebuild my Carter YF, which has recently started to give me a stall while running, or a hard start from cold every now & then, which a few shots of Gumout down...
  14. YJ Wrangler Technical Forum
    Hi again all. Got another issue that seems to be quite common amongst YJ owners. I did a forum search trying to find a solution but none of the results "I" found are exact. I purchased my 87 YJ just a few days ago and I've noticed the following: I smell gas almost every time I drive it. It...

    I have a nuttered Carter BBD carb on my 258 and it needs replacing. I was looking online for one and found one but it is without the electronic stepper motor. my question is will it fit and work good without problems? Mine was nuttered by the PO and i dont know a lot about carbs.

    I bought my CJ in August last year. It pinged at low rev getting into 2nd gear. I changed the plugs, wires and coil and ensured that the timing fell between the recommended setting. I also checked the compression and adjusted the mix on the 1 bbl Carter carb. It still pinged and stuttered...

    Hello... What would be a good asking price for a 1bbl intake and 1bbl Carter carb? The carb will need rebuilt.....its all just wasting space in the garage... Thanks! - Jarod

    I finally finished the one piece rear axle install, so I took her for a test drive. When I got back she was idling bad, so I turned it off. I popped the hood and they had gas coming out both sides of the carb, looks like between the carb and spacer. Since I will pull the carb to check why, I...

    Hi All. I have an 83 CJ7 with a Carter carb. The only markings I can find are right under the Carter name and they are 2731. What can you guys tell me about it ? I would appreciate any info so I can at least see how bad this thing is messed up

    So in the middle of the rebuild on my 1980 Carter BBD I discovered where the problem was at. One of my metering rods are broken. So in my search to find the right one I am having difficulties with the autoparts stores. Autozone seems to be the one that I need to go through, checker/advance...
