even the non computer cars had a metal cap pressed over the mixture screw - sure enough that wasnt a deterrent for the previous owner of my car haha. i rebuilt the carb, new float, set everything according to the manual and it started and ran but got 19mpg...was until i fiddled with the mixture screw, now its back up where she should be 32 mixed highway/city 38-40 all highway. little more cranking than i feel should happen on a cold startup but does eventually fire up. if its warm like 1 second with the key and its running.
so yea id go over everythign it could be (plugged fuel filter from tank debris? and probably order a new solenoid and NOT mess with it haha.
