1984 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Brougham

Taking my effin' time still. New knock sensor installed, with the right pigtail. Triming the wires and hoses, routing them to be as clean as possible. The first time around, I have to admit I had done a spaghetti-ish job...!

I had put the EGR solenoid on the firewall, bad idea, noisy. Will relocate to stock location.

Just enjoying playing with that stuff - it's winter in a heated garage, sipping cheap beer, listening to old music on my outdated cd player and working on a car I like.

Cable and hose routing is better, still some to optimize, but it doesn't really show 🤣

Found a vacuum leak, check! Hopefully will fix the dysfunctional idle. TBC.

Improved the fuel line routing between the fuel pump and the carb, using AN-6 stuff, check:


re-installed the cruise control vacuum balloon after fixing its broken plastic tabs, check:


Next - exhaust leak, need to redo the R exhaust manifold to Turbo pipe; re-install the vacuum servo for cruise control (on older turbo cars, the servo sits in front of the carb, not behind)
