intake and exhaust on your engine are the same manifold. So could crack into the intake just same same as exhaust, unless the intake wetness was gas. If it was water you found your leak.
that is fine for a pressure test. no issue
Yes it is possible the exhaust is cracked. Normally folks do a test filling the manifold with acetone and see if it weeps into the exhaust side as it wicks through cracks more easily than water.
Can also get sucked in if elbow is rotted out. If it...
A quick ebay search shows TB 4 modules (are you sure its a 4 ? would think a 97 would be a 5) $200-400.

Obviously depends on the exact module. But would keep it stock...
normally if you have water entering the cylinder you will have no carbon in the cylinder or on the spark plug as it will steam clean it so to speak.
If you think it is in #4 this could be from the exhaust manifold to elbow joint or a bad exhaust. after running it let it sit a bit take the...
usually those are US size compression fittings for like 1/4" copper tubing. if you can get them where you are should be easy to make. if not get an electric choke conversion like this one from Mikes -...
slow down there's good people in this group. If you like it after water test and survey then ask to have it hauled or maybe make and offer conditional on having it hauled/inspected.
While typically this is a buyers expense play dumb and see what happens. if the seller hasn't had a lot of...
i bought a seal and bearing cup driver set from Harbor Freight worked great had an assortment of seal and bearing cup drivers.
look at parts diagram in this link there is a serial number split for one seal vs two- part #5. Would only assume that if the later siungel seal worked for all they...
yeah the ones in the pic of the kit match what I found on my phone from when I rebuilt the carb in 2023. so should be good.
I can only assume Holley uses unpublished numbers or agrees to only sell those parts to VP? In the end the VP kit was $50-60 more than a aftermarket one so just paid it...
Thanks, for resharing the list, issue with this one -its not in that list, thats where I got stumped the first time, and paid too much for an OEM kit as even Mikes carb said one of his kits would "probably" fit.
airhorn numbers are
3858330
75006-1
2631
Closest I can find on the list are 75009...

I did the same with the fuel out of my 65 pontiac. This was rust mostly but had a 60 year old fuel tank and the car has sat for years. Sucked it out , let it settle and used a paint filter to recover most of the gas. Since this was 93 octane for the higher compression engine I burned it back in...
