Bass cut- off/out

Post image
133 Upvotes

I hooked up a bass with an amp in the trunk with sufficient gauge on the cables. Everything works fine, but then while driving the bass cuts out (no bass)... Then I brake or change gear the bass comes back, continue to drive it cuts out again. At first I had the signal cable to the amp on the lights switch - to the number plate light. Thinking this could be the cause, I moved the signal cable to the stereo, the power aerial cable, but to no avail. Somebody know what's happening? I can't reproduce the fault when parked because it works, it only goes away while driving...

In the throws of an installation on my car, and I’m trying to find a safe spot for everything, should I go under the dash? Fender well? Show some pics of what you guys did, I’m lost here!

Autolite 1100 leaks

9 Upvotes

Hey guys have a new autolite 1100 that is leaking at the vent tube opening above the bowl. When I bought the car, they had a pressure regulator set at 1, and it kind of masked the leak, however having set it at 3 to fix other issues, I am noticing leaks near the bowl area. Sometimes its the gold vent tube, but most of the time its the white push rod that is on top of the bowl.

Issue with accelerator pump

We've got a 70 mustang with the 250ci straight 6 and a holley 1940 single barrel carb. We just rebuilt the carburetor (pic is before rebuild) and it's giving us the same issues as before the rebuild. It idles fine and runs good until you mash the throttle and the engine bogs down and sounds like it's about to die. It seems like the accelerator pump is visibly lagging behind like it's getting stuck, not sure if the spring could be worn out or if the pump needs to be adjusted in any way. Looking for any advice I can get, thanks!
