The rioting left are responsible for the spike, not opening businesses who follow guidelines.  Everyone who is susceptible is going to get this. It's certainly not the killer they claimed and most who contract it are asymptomatic.
Try telling that minimize observation to the family's of the people who have died because of Covid 19 and see how you feel about it then .
Well, are you up in arms because Pneumonia and the common flu far exceeded Covid? 
Every life matters to me. However, I am not going to cower at home.  I am not minimizing any death. I feel for those that lost loved ones.
The numbers are inflated, and the gloom and doom is not what they scared the hell out of people with. Of course the only family member I lost was in NY and because that Idiot Cuomo put prisoners in elderly homes to recover. 
You know what I was saying, and I am thankful it wasn't what they predicted. Remember, I served this nation and I love her more than anything. 
I'm not out trying to destroy our heritage and institute socialism like these worthless anarchist. They want to jail people for not wearing mask but if you're Antifa or a rioter the Dems give you free rein with their blessing. By all means lets let them act out like spoiled hateful children while those in the age groups. Rioting is not protected under the 1st amendment. 
Sorry you read something into what I said that wasn't there. There's no one that will be more enthralled when the world returns to some semblance of normality.  God speed.

It's not the intake. He said the other carbs work fine. Drew set my carbs up so the idle adjustment is via the secondary plates. It keeps the car from running rich.
#33
The plastic fast idle cam would not release on my BJ-BKs. I could flip if off of fast idle with the choke open and it would idle normally. 900 RPM in my case.
If reaching behind the choke body and flipping the plasctic arm allows it to return to normal then the choke is the issue. Drew here can give you a hand with this.
Here is his facebook page and he is here often.

You can wire the Pertronix without any cutting or splicing. A simple scotch lok on the right side (Ign side) of the harness where it's plugged into the tach. Pull a 14ga wire through the engine harness boot  at the firewall and run it parallel with the existing engine harness under the clips on the valve cover. butt splice it to the red wire from  the Pertronix module to the wire you just pulled. The ford wiring and the black wire go on the coil as it did from Ford.
I'll be in LGA about 1600. I'll check my messages before my last leg of the day.

Bill did my shifter and disassembled my lever so I could have it re-chromed and reassembled it.  I highly recommend him.

I think my 67 was enclosed, I don't remember it being outside the wrapping of the harness.  I could be wrong in this case.

Doug: When you take the fire-retardant wrap off you'll find the other end.
#39
That one is complete.  You may have to change the line fittings. They are different with drum-disc cars.

It's also called a residual valve by Ford. It does not function as a traditional proportioning valve as it doesn't control brake bias front to rear.  I though it was a proportioning as well.
Until I found out what it did.
#41
Do you have an air conditioned car? Automatic  trans?
#42
Ford didn't use a proportioning valve either.
They use a residual valve. It holds 3 psi to the rear drums.
NPD offers residual valves. Even aftermarket in 3 psi and 10 psi for rear disc. If you can do a double flair you can do this yourself.
#43
Yes, a drum brake block.  There is no residual valve. ( No proportioning valves on mustangs/shelbys) The master will be a drum master as well.  Smaller bore as well.

I am going to take my car out for a ride. Inspirational to say the least!  Who would have thought  Frank Beard had a Shelby..  ;D

Did you pin the distribution block before you bled them with the tool? If not, the pin likely shifted. Rarely can you recenter a pin that has shifted all the way one way or the other without doing it with a pick though a line hole. Then it has to be pinned before bleeding.
