[NoVa-Corvairs] Just listed my Spyder on Craigslist

[Greg Walthour]

Mike:  I had full intentions of going to Hershey...  I was already in the Harrisburg area with a Corvair, something just came up at the last minute.  Glad you went to represent the NVCC!  

To answer your question, have you replaced all the "soft" rubber vacuum hoses & also the rubber gas line hoses?  The one "above" the starter in the right rear wheel well has been known to deteriorate and cause problems similar to what you are experiencing.  I'd check there first!  Good luck!  Greg

Also noticed this weekend that after driving and engine is hot, that I’m having pinging when starting off or light acceleration. I know this is a result of over advance in timing…but timing is set dead on.??? I’m running 93 BP in the car. I beginning to think I have issue in the Dist somewhere??
