Well I have been working on the wagon over the last several weeks (as well as lurking here) and was having several issues like rough idle and emergency drive not working. I also replaced the exhaust system with a new Walker 2.5" system because the yahoo that had the wagon before me had a glass pack put on it. With every issue I ran into I found an explanation on this forum and and how to fix it! Tonight I traced the Emergency Dive vacuum lines back to the engine and found that both the lines were ruptured. A quick cut ,reattach and test, confirmed that indeed this was the issue (and also helped with the idle a bit). And after I had it engaged I could not get out of emergency drive. I remember reading a thread here that mentioned reversing in and "S" pattern and a retry usually solves the issue, and it did. Tomorrow I perform the TFI upgrade and next weekend I replace all the TRE's.

So I just wanted to thank everyone here for your collective knowledge and your willingness to share "trade secrets".

Thanks!

UPDATE:

TFI Upgade DONE! It is amazing how much of a difference it makes in the engine start! First turn of the key it took a millisecond to start. Adjusted the carb idle mix and tweaked the timing (with instruction from this forum...) and the Wagon runs much better!

Now on to the TRE's next weekend.

Glasspacks belong on a Muscle Car! I wanted something a little bit more civil when I am on the trail.
