Why does engine die when I remove oil cap?
Just recently engine would kill when removing oil cap. The only thing I've done is adjust valves and MSD. Tune up 1500 miles ago

I think this is a good thing. It means you have no vacuum leaks. Removing the oil cap creates one.
|
Idle should drop, but it shouldn't die.
|
I'm glad there are know vacuum leaks, its a bit of a chore to check oil level though, and don't recall having any leaks in the past because idel would drop noticeably the but never die.

sorry for the THE did"nt proof read
|
What RPM does your car idle at? Hows your fuel mixture?
|
"cone" in oil filler neck hose, is missing or skewed. (it is called a restrictor in the parts catalog)
|
|
I was under the assuption that the 3.2 had a restrictor not the 3.0. Does anyone have a part number?
|
part number is in the first link, that bill provided.
|
Parts Heaven says that number is the oil tank
|
The first # is the '81 tank that first used the restrictor, the second #930 107 289 00 is the actual restrictor.
