I had an unusual problem today, that hopefully you will avoid. When I purchased my Max Wedge components, the carb linkage components were fully chromed. I lubricated the parts when I installed them. Today when I left a show my engine wouldn't idle below 1500 rpm. Soon it was 2,000, then 2,500. I stopped the car to check it out thinking I'd lost a carb return spring. Everything looked normal, but the linkage was binding. I kept working it back and forth, and it freed up. Back on the road, and a few blocks later it was binding at 2,500 again, and then it hit 3,000 and I pulled over a second time and loosened the ball attachment to the driver's side carb. I was lucky I guess, because that's what was binding. I kept working it with a wrench, then finally my fingers, before reassembling it. That got me home at 1,500 rpm. I just took apart the ball socket and found that the chrome and partially flaked off, and the pieces were catching on the jagged edges remaining on the ball. I removed the remaining chrome and lubed it with powered graphite and a drop of oil. I checked the passenger side and found the same thing, and took the same corrective action. I just wanted to warn you, just in case anyone else thinks that chroming these linkages would look neat. It does, but please be sure not to chrome the ball socket parts...Brian '64 Belvedere Woodstock, IL.
