Picked up an 81 4 door malibu on friday. It's a completely stock 3.8. I had to leave for 4th of july weekend immediately, and didn't have time to go through it. I have never owned a carbed v6. I'm using this as a daily driver to get back and forth the the 79 i'm building.
Is there a decent article somewhere, or someone that has some time to explain how to get rid of all of the emissions stuff? the air pump, all those damn hoses and lines? I wanted to give it a complete tune up before driving it anywhere far, but i can't even see the plugs and wires with all this crap attached to the engine. I'll get some pics if needed. Any help at all would be useful.
