Mine was unhooked too, I nominate this thread for a sticky!

Great job on re-titling everything Doc. This will really make it stand out for the arichives I believe.

re-titling? I hadn't noticed that...

Hey Doc, if you're bored and you want to re-title stuff, how about continuing what I started in the archives and prefixing threads with their corresponding area of the car so that when you alpha sort all the (COOLING) threads are together, all the (ENGINE) threads are together, etc...

LoL mine was extremly loose and i just torqued it down! Its too late to start it up ill wake the neighbors so i will have to wait until tomm to see if it makes a diff!

lol old thread

Nice thread. So basically it's a 2bbl when this is not attached?

Yep, so slow as dirt. After 4000 rpms it's just revving for nothing

mine was dirt after like 3k lol

It was unhooked on Rusty. She's running MUCH better now! I could never of got her running like this without this forum. Which is hands down the best Auto forum community on the web. OMG this one thing seemed to of solved problems. It's running like new now.

so, this is just on an fb right? not an s/a?

I checked mine and it's hooked up properly although the nut is at the end of the threads, not like the picture where there is 1/4" of threads showing. DAmn, I was hoping it wasn't hooked up and I could find some extra horsepower.:lol:

+1

It's on both SA and FB's.

i got to check mine tom. i hope this fixs my carb issues

Man got to love forums!!!!

No gas?

It pays to read threads :(

Wow, shocking how many people have experienced this. Mine was unhooked too.

I have mechanical secondaries...it wasn't hooked up but didn't see what could...mechanical secondaries for the win!

Sure enough mine was unhooked too. Gonna have to hit the highway and see if it makes a difference im sure it will.

Just went outside on my lunch break....






....and mine was disconnected too!!

ok newb question is the nikki carb the stock carb for an 1985 rx7

Yes.

Uh-oh.:uhh: The secret's out and my "modding" scam is about to be uncovered...

I remember back in the day when I first had my RX-7 I stumbled across the same thing. Good thread getting the information out there on a common problem. Archive material (if it's not already hidden in there somewhere).

After a trip to the junkyard:

Only thing is, my throttle cable feels like it has slack now. Where do I go about adjusting that?
