also if anyone wants to help me with a wheels dilemma feel free to suss this thread http://www.rollaclub.com/board/?showtopic=25430 :jamie:

thanks for the reply's everyone i had a look for vacuum leaks and there isn't any i also went and had a chat with a mechanic friend and he thinks i would be much better off getting rid of the twins and putting on a single weber as there is simply too much fuel being pumped in..I'm going to take it to a carby specialist next week and see what can be done before i resort to that i tried to get a camera to take some pictures but my sisters away with the digital so I'm going to have to wait for her to get back from holidays :jamie: ill post them as soon as i can

So as most of you all can see by my join up date/ posts made etc i am more than quite new here. I recently bought a 79 ke55 sedan. Basically because i love older cars always have and when i took one look at this i was like yess! I don't know jack about cars, i know how to drive one thanks to living on many many acres out in wisemans ferry/st albans as a young kid, but apart from that i even had to read the bottle changing the radiator fluid the other day. Due to various court, police and train fines i've only managed (recently) to get my license (I'm 23) so cars in general, especially when it comes to motors and the like are very new to me. anyway enough of my life story here's my problem My car simply won't idle, it will run fine etc but when i take the foot off the accelerator it just dies on me, the person/friend i bought it from says its because it has twin webers and it won't idle because there's too much fuel being pumped into the engine..although i don't doubt that too much fuel being pumped into the engine is a problem surely there is a way around this without putting on single webers? (as my friend suggested) Anyway i have plenty more question so I'm going to use this thread to bring up things to you all and hopefully get some invaluable help in return. Here are some details on my car (although ill have to take some pictures of it all thoroughly to make sure this is all correct, just let me know what i should take pictures of haha) theres some surface rust and a quite a few dings but nothing really bad, well nothing worse than a shopping trolley could inflict basically Twin webers Flat Top Pistons Stage 4 Cam Oversized Crank 4K Head 5k Block 5spd Celica Gearbox Lowered king springs king shocks 2 1/2" Burkley Exhaust with Extractors sound 6x9 6" door 12" sub I paid 1700 for it and the car in question is the picture in my avatar did i get myself a decent deal, or did i get jibbed? I also wouldn't mind putting a couple of grand into it once i start saving some cash and pay for rego/green slip etc I love these type of cars and want mine looking nice :bash: One last thing while on the subject of green slips who have you all found to have the most decent prices in NSW? I'm hearing the Commonwealth Bank but surely there has to be somewhere better...I'm a poor bastard basically and would like to put my money into my car as opposed to filling up some already overflowing pockets thanks!
