Weird Coincidence:  I live in CA.  Bought my V8 Pinto from PintoPaul in Idaho and needed to sell my BMW K1200LT to make room for it in the garage.  It just sold it on ebay...to a guy in Idaho!

1972 wagon and I have emissions questions.
« on: January 15, 2012, 03:37:54 PM »
Ok, so I have pulled the carb for rebuild and I am curious which emissions controls I can do without. Do I really need to keep the decel valve? If not, do I just cap it? Will it cause issues for the manifold? Help me please!
Thanks!!

No problem with capping the decel...ran mine that way for years. The automatic '72 I had, did not come with decel. JT
