ok so i removed the rats nest... ahh nice and clean... but... ever since my car has ran like crap. i know i have vacume leaks but i cant stop them. i have them pluged but i spray carb cleaner and the rpms go up..... so i was thinking maybe putting some gasket sealer stuff around the outside. if that would seal it alittle better. i dont know.

what did you use to stop the leaks? have you tried vaccume caps?

yea i got all of what was on the shopping list from rx7carls tutorial... but i have leaks damnit..

Rx7carl

Use the carb cleaner. Get a straw nozzle like off a WD40 can. The you can pinpoint the leaks and fix them.

i did that but i cant stop the leak.. i found where the leaks are..... all of the vacume caps....

get smaller caps

these caps that i got were hard *** hell to get on there already i dont think i would be able to get a smaller cap on there.

Rx7carl

So are the caps bad? Or are the tubes themselves maybe bad?

wwilliam54

if they keep on, coat the vac hookup with rtv around the sides and put the cap back on

no everything is brand new ima try that rtv sugestion

or epoxy, glue the suckers on there

pratch

are you certain it's the caps and not the seal between the spacer and the intake mani or carb? Do you have new or old gaskets (or are you not using them)?

Right where you plug the caps is the carb gasket mabye it is leaking there.
