| rebuilding 72 carb: is this the egr? (and advice) I have the rebuild kit for the carb on my 72 Eldorado convertible, but I'm new at this.
There is a small metal "box" on the driver's side of the air filter housing--is this the egr connection?
When I had it checked out before buying it, it was blowing 2.0% CO; my limit is 1.2%. I'll rebuild the carb and give it a full tune up; is this likely to be enough?
I absolutely have to meet the standard for initial registration (the car came from out of state). I can either smog it yearly, or smog it once and get an exemption for the future (with a 2,500 mile/year limit). Either way, though, I need to get it down at least once.
I have my rebuild kit, chilton, hanes, a bottle of spray cleaner, and the can of carb cleaner. Any other advice?
Thanks
