Thanks for the help JPNinPA, will check that out tomorrow. I connected a multimeter to the + of the coil drove the jeep and the meter read 12.5-13.5v depending on speed and had 12volts on coil when stalled turning right. Started right up after stall. Am not giving up, after returning home let it...

1979 cj7 258ci 2100 motorcraft carb stalling on right turns while driving, left turns ok, idle set @ 1000rpms. Starts right up after stall. Perhaps electrical grounding during turn?

K-2, bjscj7, just finished with motorcraft 2100 car rebuild kit, do believe the power valve was the issue as well as grunge. Runs good, idles good, good acceleration, starts good, so it was well worth the effort. No smog, no cat converter, have manual choke on carb, again thanks for the help...

Thanks k-2 for your input, fluids all ok, air filter on runs, starts ok, air filter off runs rough, old plugs were worn, dry and ton in color. Choke plate wide open when stall occurs and gas tank is vented so no tank vacuum or pressure. Will remove carb and use rebuild kit from NAPA. Power valve...

1979 cj7 258ci 2150 motorcraft carb starts, idles, vacuum gauge reads steady 22hg then drops to 0hg at stall. Restarts then belches white smoke thru carb. Jeep stalls at speed restarts popping clutch. Engine ran good, replaced rusted dirty fuel tank, now have clean fuel, filter and return line...

Yes, seems I needed spring clips on the front disc inner pads. Thanks for asking and am currently working on replacing rear drums and shoes. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Only when pregnant!

Thanks for your comments 69jeepcj. I see Morris 4x4 has the kits needed for the task. May start on that next week. Just finished replacing a 30 day old ignition control module, issue "no spark". May need to upgrade distributed in near future. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Re thread: Replacing the lower steering shaft bearing and steering gear coupling on a chair by Police Monkey161. Perhaps the better phrase would be the bearing located on the bottom of the steering column.

Thanks again JPNinPA, installed spring clips and all is well. Next issue is replacing upper and lower steering shaft bearings

Thanks again and will let you know the results

Thanks for the diagram especially the small inset which shows the location and orientation of the pad spring. Problem is front disc pads the rear brakes are drum brakes. Ordered springs from Morris 4x4 and will install in a few days. Just noticed in the diagram that I may also need anti rattle...

Thanks for for the response JPNinPA, calipers appear to be factory and recall po telling me he just replaced brake pads when I purchased the 1979 cj7 last year. The clicking noise began about three months ago but was very slight and would cease when slight pressure was applied to the brakes.

Clicking noise is driving me crazy so today removed both calipers, pads, cleaned, wire brushed reassembled calipers then went for a test drive. Still clicking. After checking out several posts I understand I'm missing spring clips? Where to install as I have no reference either side. Thanks for...
