    My 302 HO keeps popping ever so often as I travel at freeway speeds.
    My mechanic has changed the coil and the fuel pump. Could it be the fuel injectors? I'm tired of sending it back to the mechanic. Please advise.
    Check it out at DRIVER'SLICENSETRAINING.COM.

    Thanks,

    I agree! Definatly different, but I kinda like it. It takes a lot of time to get a car in that kind of shape. Looks good! Preston

    Plug wires, or if the motor has a lot of miles a new timing chain may be in order.
