7041208 fast idle cam

(1/3) > >>

70quad:
This looks like a great forum, here's my first post. I just picked up a 7041208, dated 1601, for a very cheap price. Owner said it ran fine, & it looks clean. My problem is with the fast idle cam(plastic), the choke pull off, & the bracketry involved. It doesn't look correct to me, as I've never had a carb of that era with a plastic cam, - in fact I've never had any Quadrajet with one. I'm attaching a pic, with hopes someone can tell me what this setup is off of, & maybe someone can post a pic of what it should have. Thanks in advance, - Dale.

 Welcome to CHP!

 Choke Pull-Off, Bracket and Link are correct. Looks like someone put the choke pull-off link in from the back, instead of putting it through the front. I would also definitely get a new steel fast idle cam from Cliff. Looks like yours is in bad shape. The thing that is throwing me off is the linkage on the very front of your photo? Doesn't look correct to me. I would look on eBay, as there is probably some carbs that you can compare it to. Cliff will know if it is correct. Doesn't look like it to me.

 These are what I am referring to, that I am not sure of.

Looked on Ebay, nothing that looked like mine. A lot of them were complete junk, missing & broken parts etc. Would be nice to see an original, even a pic. I'll just have to research more. - Dale

 Don't know what you're talking about? :o They all are the same as your's and are complete.

 Didn't look at the choke pull-off right. Here is a photo of the correct choke pull-off:

 

 Still not sure about the "lever's" in my second post.
