What's on your bench?

[MustangMike]

I've had a few 362's that wouldn't idle and after trying several things I finally had to adjust the throttle plate some. That's not easy but it worked.

I almost drilled the one in mine it was idling so low, but it seems better now, maybe just the cooler weather?

Supposedly if you do a reset it fixes it. Sometimes it does and some don't. But there is a idle screw just hard to get to. Or can bent the curved part of the arm that touches the screw a few thousands.

Not on the bench but, I finished this up the day b4 I left for the TN GTG. Rotted in half right above the axle where the air bags mounted. It had been getting bad for a long time. I had picked up a real nice frame last spring and just didn't get around to it over the summer.
I'll get right on that next week. Y'all been there.

Good to go for haulin wood again.

Tested out the module and coils on the 266XP with the Merc-O-Tronic 79 tester. They made the grade so back in they went. Saw is all back together now, have a few small details to finish later with the arrival of more parts, all the major work is complete. Seeing as I'm going from small to large, guess the 272XP will be next.

Someone needs to come out with a plug and play back half kit for those GM's.

Got this $20.00 372 top end from HL.
I imagine a victim will show up eventually.

I've burned a lot of rods patching my old '87 Toyota pickup frame together. The motor won't die, just have to keep the rest of it together.

I've been replacing the front wheel bearings in my 2000 Town & Country. Passenger side axle is bad, so I'm swapping a new one in while it's apart. I have been having trouble getting the axle out of the transmission. It's pretty stuck. Any tricks y'all might have????

Pry bar with a bad shoulder lying on my back under the van ain't working.

BFH, and you may have to get pissed off with that pry bar. If it's bothering you to do it, try and get a helper, not worth injury. What I really want to know is how the heck did you get that up on your bench? No darn wonder your shoulder is bad.

Is there room for a pickle fork ? and hammer?

 

[beaglebriar]

Yep there's a snap ring holding that sucker in there. I'm with exSW. Hook something to it and give it a tug.

Don't pull the joint apart. Then you'll be dealing with grease everywhere

 

[dall]

usually if you push them in and then give them a quick jerk they will come out

Yeah that sh it's like roofing tar you'll have it all over everything. They have to be completely shot to come apart though.

 

[Mastermind]

I'll wrap a chain around it and tie something heavy on it. Then I'll pop it a few times like a slide hammer.

Can't get the tractor to it Ross.

I'll try that Dallas. It was dark, and I am old.....but tomorrow will be a new day.

you can do it while your on the outside of the wheel well grab the outer joint and wear gloves so the clamps and rough areas of spindle dont tear you up
