already swapped everything over but only half did it still have fuel regulator not adjusted or removed is that bad and my carb is flat what should i get? sorry my first car kinda new to working on them

 

Not trying to be rude, but what?

 

haha sorry so i got a 86 camaro v6 efi and my friend swapped the motor from a 73 elcamino ss not sure if he did every thing right kinda just does the bare minimum what would be the easiest way to tell ?

 

Welcome aboard thirdgen.org.

By "flat", are you saying your carb is non-functional, or non-existent?

How can you tell if it was done right? Ask him what he did, then post what he says on here.

 

my carb works its just after my car is warmed up it boggs out. say when i am going to a red light and it turns green and i step on the gas. Im not stomping on the gas either.?

 

What kind of carb is it? Do you know how he set up the fuel system?

V6 EFI used a in-tank electric fuel pump - if that is still being used, some sort of fuel pressure regulation, and a fuel return system, is required.

If an engine-mounted mechanical pump like was used in '73 is being used, the in-tank electric pump must either still be operating or it has to be removed - if it is still being used, see "fuel pressure regulation" and "fuel return system" comments above.

 

I bet the pump is still in the take and you are using the mechanical pump on the enigne. I have herd that you can just pull fuel threw the intake "dead" pump but it doesnt work. I had to pull the pump out and it fixed it. I had the same problem you got. It would idle but it couldnt pull enuff fuel threw the dead pump to do anything other than idle.

 

its a rochester quad jet and he said the engine is big enough it will use the extra gas ne ways dont need to take it out he said. but the he said it was carbed to begin with. but has diagnostics check under steering collumn whats that mean?

 

All 3rd gens with carbs delivered in the U.S. had a computer controlling the carb mixture and ignition timing (among other things).

However, '86 V6 f-bodies did not have carbs. He is either ignorant, or he's lying, or the car isn't an '86.

 

so i changed my 80s rochester to a late 60s rochester quadra jet and i needed to adjust my tv cable right? still havent done so just figured this out looking at thread cause it takes a few seconds to shift from 2nd to drive feel like on shifts if i hit right rpm

 

Translation please?

 

on the 700r4 transmissions they have throttle valve cables or tv cables and not a kick down cable its hooked up to throttle and adjusts how it shifts up and down.
