(Engine) 1985 GLS-SE/ 1979 GS
hi guys,
I just got another 7 and the owner that had it said that it needs a throttle chamber. What exactly is this? All i find is an adapter with a butterfly. Is this just the carburator idle controller? Heres a pic he sent me. Let me know what you guys think.
Thanks.

I think by "throttle chamber" he is referring to the entire upper intake manifold that contains the DEI chamber, runners, throttle body, etc. Shouldn't be too hard to find (I have like 4 in my basement).

Thanks guys. From what he was discribing it sounds like the seals ar bad so the car dosent stay on. So i think he is covering for a blown motor. Guess im going to be doing some compression testing.
