Will A New Carb Get My CJ7 Running?
Long overdue my CJ7 needs a new carburetor...badly. While we're out it let's address the valve cover and gasket that I've already changed and simplify the vacuum system. Will it run?

When you own four cars well over 100k miles each including two daily drivers you become a slave to them. Fortunately most of today's videos are quick fixes and the 911 is the best running of the bunch.

    Looks great. Orange peel expected if not wet sanded. Maaco offers color wet sand for extra and definitely worth it on Mercedes 040 black. Would have let them keep it another week to finish.

  • @tommymac3029
    @tommymac3029 26 дней назад

    The car needs to be cut and buffed. Wet sand and polish it. I had really good results getting single stage polyurethane from Maaco, but I also sanded, primed and sealed the car myself. Prep is key to any paint job. Cut and buff and it will look way better.

  • @kirkmays2125
    @kirkmays2125 Месяц назад

    What you have is orange peel. that has nothing to do with the surface. it’s the way they sprayed it, but it can be fixed sanded and polished out as long as there’s enough clear on it. The reason the side panels have it more than the hood is because of gravity. The weight of the paint if you put it on too heavy, will create that I’m with you though I would not have been happy seeing those results.

    For $1000, this looks good. I would be satisfied with this for that price. As I have said previously, if I wanted my automotive painted to showroom condition, Maaco is not where I would take it. I have personally never had an automotive that I desired to do that with.

      I’m far from a professional and f’d up the plastidip enough I don’t think I would do so hot on the vinyl wrap but maybe worth a shot. Certainly would be less prep work.

    Lovely cars these SLKs: reliable, very quick off the mark and not expensive to run - brilliant cruising cars! Plus they look amazing with the outward McLaren SLR body lines, and the vario convertible roof is a brilliant 'Transformer' type gadget indeed. I have the same 2006 R171 model in black, for 4 years now as my daily driver with 85k on the clock. Best car I've owned, honestly - I'm smitten with it (then again, I'm easy to please and tend to be more of a cyclist - enjoying 2 wheels more than 4). BUT for a car, its a real head turner. I think along with the SLK 55AMG, the R171 SLK are the best looking of the SLK & SLC models made. Then, that's just my silly opinion.

    Depending on how much clearnis on the car, you can cut and buff it. It will look better. $1200.00 will not get a stripped and painted car. Even 3K for that would be a stretch today.
