Now we’re scurrying to get it finished for a road trip to see my family this weekend! We’ve had the carb rebuilt. Last night we found leaky front wheel cylinders and have replaced them and finished bleeding the system. Fresh fuel has replaced the bad stuff we drained. Falcon now fires up well – there just seems to be a couple small kinks to iron out. For example, the brake lights aren’t coming on….faulty brake switch?
