On the car following the various ruts in the pavement; that's usually a sign of well worn tires or well worn suspension. Could be an alignment issue too. The wider your front tires are, the more exaggerated the problem will be. This will also make your steering seem sensitive, as you begin to change lanes and it seems to overreact and jump to the next lane.
k guys i check for vacuum leaks this morning after i went to go buy some carb cleaner when thru every hose thats connected to the booster and the manifold. everything was fine. so then i check it with a vacuum tester and t read about 200 the more rev i gave the higher the vacuum climb. so it has good suction is that correct is it suppose to suck the air back to the intake. or maybe i need another booster what do you guys think about dose hydro booster are they any good.


about the carb it did cross my mind but i didn't have no more money. this motor work cost me 2400 buck. so no more money but ill do that later i want to break in the motor for right now, after that ill change the intake,carb and put some headers. but for now it will stay like that.

about my tires i do have some wide tires in the front so do you guys think replace with smaller ones or just do a front new suspension kit.
