Just to let you know a aftermarket tach will hook up differently.The only direct wire hookup would be with the original CJ tach8)

It should be your tach wire according to the print.Do you have a tach?

Make sure your PVC hose is good and check for sludge build up where it enters the manifold fitting

From posts i have read for California.It's better to go to the emissions place and find the Manager and see whats required.They have info there they follow as to what you need.Wouldn't hurt anyway,at least you know what your up against. Good Luck

Good to hear.Did it have bad internals or gear.?That was about the only thing it could have been was bad Dizzy

Did you ever find your problem:???:

Howell has a kit for California.I have a emissions chip in mine.I also have a offroad and street legal chip to put in if i want it. It takes a weekend to install or one day if your good at it.Sometimes a little longer if there's trouble tuning it. Here's a article on it. Howell TBI Throttle...

I presume tightning it didn't work.You'll have to do the exhaust also to do it right.I used allen head bolts when i did mine.It made it alot easier.Lock Tite and anti-seize will be your best friend also for the bolts.

Has anyone checked the distributor gear since install?Some of the HEI dizzys had hardened gears that would eat a cam up on startup.Especially on the 258.That would throw everything off.

I put a Howell kit on 14 years ago and never regretted it.Mileage went up as did performance.Mine is a 83 with the computerized Carter BBD

I had a miss in mine in the high ranges.It turned out to be the plate on the throttle body where the throttle linkage was bolted to was on wrong. Once we positioned the plate on the throttle body correctly it went away.Is Howell working with you on this?I would sure get their input.
