Re: cracked exhaust manifold on 232



I'll check it again but I have a new one as the old one had a hole in it.

Dear Jay,
  Your vacuum diaphragm in the distributor is leaking.   Check that and
drop me a line.   I will explain.
     Your AMC friend,
      Gary Walker

Boy, I changed my maniufold yesterday on my American and the darn thing
about fell apart when I unbolted it from the block. It had all kinds of
cracks, some hair-line and some quite wide and long. Car sounds a lot
quieter now but doesn;t idle any smoother.

When I set the idle in Park at a rather fast 700 rpm, when i put it in
Drive
and the engine slows down, it almost gets loping and rough. I can't seem
to
get a "compromise" setting that will be fairly smooth in Drive and still
not
jump into gear when I take it out of Park and put it in Drive. Any ideas
what I might try with this situation?
