87 Caprice uses Throttle Body Fuel Injection. To put a carb on it will also require changing the distributor and fuel pump and disabling the computer. This will eliminate your cruise control and possibly mess up your speedometer.
A 1987 Chevy Caprice Classic with the original engine does have a carb and the engine is a 305, because I have one. This can have a 307. I have an 87 Caprice Estate Wagon, with a 5.0 liter 307 olds. Which, is actually for sale.
Put a 4bbl carb and intake on it. If I remember they came with 2bbl
Adjust your carb, otherwise, it's a problem with gas getting to the carb while accelerating.
what is the horsepower of 1987 Chevy caprice classic 305ci. 4barrel carb. thanks ironbutch@yahoo.com
on the side of the carb. look for the word filter and an arrow near a inlet nut...unscrew the nut and out pops the filter!
Assuming you have a 305 V8 with a Rochester Quadrajet carb. You will have to pull the carb, and tear it apart. The TPS sits in a groove in the front of the carb body. Buy a carb rebuild kit, watch the Youtube videos on rebuilding quadrajets, and do it. I just rebuilt my carb over the weekend. My 83 Caprice now runs great.
Butterfly at the top of the carb. Controlled by Round black box at side of the carb. (Temp. sensitive)
cause its throttle body injection theres no carb on it its probly your fuel pump is gone
clean, replace e.g.r. valve, tune up or replace catalytic convertor.
It's located in the top part of the carb
you need new valve seals in the heads or the choke on the carb isn't working right.
the only fuel filter on a 86 caprice is right before the carb in the line. Just remove that line carfully as not to damage the nut use a line wrench to prevent disaster and dont bend line because it could cause breakage or creases. don;t worry about the gas that comes out of the carb and line just let it evaporate before trying to start car.
