Sadly, the stock alignment specs would still apply to my car. It still has the original wheels (and hubcaps!), drum brakes and steering...
Know of any good exploded views/diagrams of the control arm assembly? If I can adjust this myself, I'd rather do that than pay someone else to do...
The front-end of my '71 Mav is sitting low and causing me to have a lot of camber on the front wheels and giving me a lot of wear to the inside of...
@bmcdaniel: What is the benefit of the spiral cores plug wires? What Autolite plugs do you use? I know that the current plug wires I use do not...
I am about to replace the distributor cap, rotor, plug wires and plugs soon on my '71 302 Mav. I have a Pertronix Ignitor III and 60kV E-Core, so...
I should have also mentioned that the guy that owned the car before me must have pulled and rotated the distributor at some point because my #1 on...
Ok, so I have an issue with timing since I got a Pertronix Ignitor III and installed it. My timing came out way too advanced after installing it...
Even with me struggling to get my car tuned totally right, I'm getting around 18mpg on my 35 mile commute to work with traffic and also 70mph...
Using the digital temp gauges I've got, my coil read a max temp of 192.6 as it sits on my intake manifold. Thoughts?
I wonder why the filter would act so differently when hot? The filter is new, but that's not to say it didn't get some junk built up in it. I'll...
Ok, here's a hypothetical question. What would happen if my water pump wasn't working properly and my motor was getting hot (I'm not sure if the...
I've got some digital temp gauges that I can use that I run on my RC stuff. They can go upwards of 200 degrees and are easy to mount. I'll mount...
I currently don't have a temp gauge installed but I can find out how hot. What is the normal operating temp range I should be looking for?
If the coil isn't failing, would it getting hot still cause it to act so poorly? Yes, it is located on the intake manifold.
Still seeing this problem. Had some issues with my plug wires, but got that fixed. Thought all was good but noticed this problem the last 2 days...
Once I get a electronic ignition system (probably Crane Cams XR-i and PS20 Coil) I'll probably update to better plugs and plug wires (along with...
Didn't see any more arching last night! Woo hoo! :whew: I'm going to go check again tonight to be sure though. Hopefully I've got her fixed (for...
Went back out this morning and re-routed the plug wires and made sure everything was firmly assembled. Re-set gap on points and inspected the...
I've got my points set at 0.016, but I can bump it to 0.017 to see what happens. Yes, you're right about the grease on the boots. I don't know...
The plug wires came with a conductive grease already added to help the boots slide over the plug. When I pull the plugs to check them tomorrow,...
