    Quadrajet mod to run strait gas

    I actually though of doing that and may still. I would have to use the bottom peice get rid off the middle and top peices. Then make up a top peice by turning up a peice of ally and borings out the troats to the same size as the butterflys, then use a die grider to smooth out the top.

    lpg not working

    maybee the realay to the gas shut off soliniod or the solinoid itself. Or I have to ask did you check whether the gas is turned on at the tank? The mechanic may have turned the valve off

    possibly ruined a part on my carby

    dunno what that thing is mate but thinners isnt really good to use for cleaning stuff. Any plastic bits and possibly rubber bits will now be fcked. Thiners dissolves plastic so im guessing you will need to pull the thing apart and put a carby kit for it
