Well HURAY for me. I did it all by me. Got that left bottom panel off and found the air/fuel mixture thingie but you will never ever get to it...it's un-getable. Took the seat off and found the idle screw...fired her up...ran for 5 min. and addjusted the idle to 1600 RPM and it WORKED. And then in one day I gpt it all back together again. In one more month this ol' jarhead Marine will start his 88th birthday. I did good...I think. Salute

go to amazon.com and get the Motion Pro 08-0229 degree hex head driver it is made to adjust fuel/air mixture screw and then there is the tappet tool set Motion Pro 08-0073 it lets you adjust your valces much easier I got both tool sets and was not dissapointed with either one just go to amazon and do a search on the name and number

Oh, And hey Oldmopar. Speaking of Mopars, Its not just late model cars. Have you ever had to give a 1969 Plymouth Fury with the regular 383 a tune up ? Theres 1 or maybe even 2 sparkplugs it is damn near impossible to get out and replace. So bad that 99% of mechanics never replaced those plugs when giving that car a as said tune up. I remember finally getting them out and the whole electrode and all would be burned off from never being replaced. Ya, I owned one of those. Took me 3 hours just to change plugs. They were a P.I.T.A and I learned a whole new vocabulary working on that car. Roy
