    I'm hoping to get some cash here soon and I'm just going to buy a Weber carb and elimnate all that vacumn shit. I'm still looking around on that site though for soemthing just to somewhat fix the problem for a little while if not fix the problem all together.



    How would I fix the floats?

    You would basically just take the carb apart and clean it really good, and check the float and clean it. That should fix anything in the carb internally, unless somethings way off or broken. As far as the emissions stuff and all the vacuum lines you can remove most all of the lines since its mostly emission crap. We can do huge vacuum removals on the 3rd gen accord which reduces our like 30 vac lines down to about 2-3, although im not super sure on the 85.

    Well, if I can remove most of my vacumn lines.. Which one's would I know to remove to where it would still run? Because this is my DD now and I can't afford to screw it up. haha. I've had people tell me a Weber carb would take care of most of the vacumn lines, so I don't see why it wouldn't work with the carb on it now. Because all the vacumn lines don't run to the carb now. So, if I just took all the vacumn lines off that do not go to the carb would it still run? And, I'm not concerned with emissions because they're not required where I live.


    So my question to you: Which vacumn lines could I remove?


    BTW, reps for as long as I can...
