Sending unit unclogged....attached a needle used to fill footballs and such to air line, inserted in the top side of pump, blew it out in one second. As for the sock and retainer...yeah not the best fit on the metal clip, but reapplied it and seemed much more snug, maybe the first time I didn't...

Ok, unclogged. Now, generally I’m not a moron but considering the sock fell off once, anyone have a “tip” for getting it to stay on? The metal retainer was on pump, but sock fell off, so need to figure out how to keep sock attached to the retainer.

Ok, clogged fuel pump, sock fell off. Tried blowing air, guess I can try some gum out or something. Any other idea? Brand new pump, hate to have to buy another one. Not sure how the darn sock fell off, pretty pissed off at that.

Let's hope not....hate to drop the tank again. Going to disconnect the fuel filter and see if I'm getting fuel there, hoping there is actually a clog in the line that I could possible blow out. But tank drop will be next. Thanks

87 T-type, been sitting better part of 10 years. Going through and getting up and running after chasing numerous vacuum issues. Got to a point where it was idling decent, throttle response nice, scanmaster numbers Ok, the. Kaput. Engine won’t start to save its life. Little starter fluid...

Yeah, body is still on and nasty underneath with 25 years of rust and grime. Might buy the kit and just make the long run from valve to block if I think it can route more simply. Thanks and here's to laying on my back for a few hours.

Where to buy? Need omplete set...I found at Kirbans, is there anywher else? Fit and function good? Is it just easier to buy brake lines at Napa and bend my own? I already own a flaring kit and pipe bender as I had to make lines for other cards. Thanks in advance

Thanks kind of figured as much. Since it lines up everywhere but the trans mount going to take it to a machine shop and see if they can just relocate the mount. Thankfully have my old rotted out one so it shouldn't be a problem.

All, my crossmember was rotter out, bought another from a board member and the mount to the trans is not in the right spot, it's about 3 inches more to the center. Are there 2 crossmembers out there for Turbo Buicks? Can I get a different mount for the trans to line up with the current...

In need of one...you got it let me know shipped price to 20871. Good condition, not all rotted out like the one I just removed....drivers side was attached until I went to unbolt it and it fell off :) Thanks

All right guys, trans back in...yay. Question now, from the trans mount I have some rubber piece that connects to the catalytic converter...where can I get a replacement for one of these? Also, my crossmember was rotted through and need a new one of those with the bushings...any thoughts...

Ahh...didn't disconnect at the throttle body...was looking at that and wasn't sure if it needed to be...was going to be the next step....and yes it was only a 2 Rum day, then called it quits....tomorrow will be a new day...and more rum to be had.

Yeah, that's the problem. I disconnected the cable and pull up, but I feel like something is pulling it back down towards the trans. I've pulled it up quite a ways, and can't see yet where it connects. I guess I just need to pull up higher on the cable to reveal the connection, correct...

Everything disconnected except a cable from the throttle body to the trans. Can't figure out how to disconnect this cable. It appears that there is something within the trans that is "connected" to the cable that comes off the throttle body. Can anybody shed some light on how to remove this...

Haven't gotten around to it...also working another issue on my 68 Camaro that is now fixed...so more attention back to the Buick. Unfortunately no guage installed so have to manually check it, but won't get around to it until tomorrow some time....until then.

Sent pm. Let me know if still available

So I bought my T-type about 2 years ago...bought a few things and then got n some other projects and the Buick sat. Well decided now is the time to get to work on her and she's idling rough (post on another thread) so decided.....hey I bought that direct scan thing way back when lets open the...

Interetsting that I'm just getting back to my old T-Type that needs alot of work and was getting in going today and same thing...won't hold idle. Adjusted TPS, checked MAF...I only need a very little bit of throttle to keep it going, like the space of a washer and it idles fine...rich (working...

Gents (and ladies if out there), picked up used units as above and checked the Regal Chilton's book...everything seems straight forward except the part about marking locations on TC and Trans...obviously can't do this since these weren't marked prior to removal originally, so how important is...

Hey guys, I'm in need of a tranny and got a bead on one close by, supposedly BRF out of a GN. Owner doesn't know any history as he had it for awhile for a project he never got around to. Need to know what to look for that could avoid be having to do a rebuild (trying not to rebuild now...
