Reply to "Smelly Cat....Smelly Cat"

Well gang, the smell I'm referring to is definitely not the smell of gasoline, thats another smell (and flavor) I'm all too familiar with.

What I smell is the smell of the foams & fabrics & adhesives used to assemble the car. beats me how it can still smell this way after 32 years, but it does. the heat in the engine bay after a drive makes the smell much stronger, I refer it as the smell of a warm Pantera.

I like to poke my head in the garage about a 1/2 hour after I've parked it & just inhale deeply. LOL.....

Bill, we don't have mud rooms in So Cal, just the occasional mud slide. But I agree with your assessment of Swens fuel vapor problem, check the intake manifold for signs of leakage from the carb.

Swen, does your Pantera still run the Autolite 4300 carb? They are notorious for warped air horns, allowing the fuel bowl to leak.

Jeff, thanks for the nice compliment. Hey, where were you before my wife left me? LOL.....

The weird guy on the PIBB, George LOL......
