RE: IML: stalling 69

Curt,

I can remember when I was about 19, I took a Holley I’d had-worked-on and worked-on-myself and finally took it off the car and I was so frustrated with it I threw it as far as I could in a vacant field. Then I went and bought another brand and was happy with it for years and years afterward.

Thanks to all who responded to my email about my 69 stalling problem. You guys are a great wealth of information.

Elijah suggested a Edelbrock, I think that what I'll do since I've already had a new kit installed on the Holley. Thanks again.

I have a 69 Le Baron 2 dr. I have had carbarator problems. Any ideas?

Remove the Holley carburetor. Locate the nearest trash receptacle. Insert the Holly into the trash receptacle.

No joke.

There are a couple of good options for a new carburetor. The Edelbrock 1406 will bolt right on and be as close to bulletproof as you can find. Summit Racing has them -- http://tinyurl.com/qlmod -- as does Jeg's -- http://tinyurl.com/pyqh5. I've ordered carbs from both companies before and both are good places to do business.

Jeg's also offers a Chrysler throttle lever adapter that makes it a snap to mate the throttle linkage up to the new carb -- http://tinyurl.com/nd33w

You'll be amazed at how much better your Imperial runs with a new carburetor.

Good luck!
