SUCESS
I just wanted to post that I was able to replace my flame trap.
I've always quit so easy before. I'm really surprised.
I did have to take the top off the distributor to get to this thing. It's really buried.
Now if I can just figure how to tell when my belts are too tight and get rid of the loud squeaking when the air compressor turns on.

Is there a place where I can learn about the throttle body. I've read here that that's a common routine maintainence issue. By the look of the old Flame trap I don't think the previous owner knew to clean it out or replace it, so maybe he didn't ever do the throttle body either.

I've looked in my Haynes manual and they don't use these names for anything so I've not found it to read about it etc...

Again, thanks for all the support.
