    No Power, pops out back, runs hot, and Pi$$ me off

    Sounds like it is starving under a load, take the fuel line off the carb and check the flow before the filter and after the filter by having someone turn the engine over with the fuel line pointed into a gas can. Even a clean filter installed backwards will cause this problem.

    Fuel issue

    Figured it out I finally figured out the fuel issue that I have been having. The carb was not getting gas. I checked the fuel pump and it was fine. I cked the fuel line past the filter that was clean and it stopped flowing - the fuel filter was on backwards. It only flows one way. I...

    No Power, pops out back, runs hot, and Pi$$ me off

    I still have a similar issue going on with mine, I am checking the fuel lines to make sure they are not near the headers. I am checking for vapor lock, I am checking the sending unit. I have already adjusted the floats in the carb, made sure my gas cap was vented and checked the electrical...

    Automatic to Manual conversio0n

    What do you mean that you will need to switch out the brake pedal to a Manual version?? You can use the same clutch brake pedal support if you are not switching to factory power brakes. If you are swithcing to factory power brakes you will need to purchase a new power brake pedal as well and...

    Fuel problem

    yes, the filter can clog completely and kill the engine. It is worth it to clean out the tank. Mine was full of newspapers, rocks, and papertowels when I purhcased the car 6 years ago. Drain the tank clean it out and blow your fileters out.

    Best Place to Purchase Pony Upholstery Kit?

    I got everything from CJ Pony parts. You cant beat the prices. When I opened the package my windowlace came in, there were two small strips not one continuous strip. I did not want to piece it all together and I called CJ's and they simply sent out a new package - no problem. If I have a...

    Sub Frame Connectors

    I would do it with the engine in the car for the simple fact that you can more easily/accurately check for any ground clearace issues. I purhcased your basic square tubing type and had a good welder install them for me. He tied them into the rear floorboards and did an excellent job. He made...

    Curious about the negative battery cable

    This is why I take the neg terminal off first. Have you ever welded a wrench to your radiator support loosening or tigtening the positive battery terminal?? This happens when you take a wrench to tighten the terminal and you touch the radiator support and it will ground out and scare the...

    Fuel issue

    Now I really need help So the wife's car died today with what I am thinking is a bad alternator and we are now sharing just my truck. It would be great if we could figure out this problem with the mustang so I can drive it while I figure out the minivan's issues. I checked all the plug...

    wing removal

    Your question is confusing. To correctly remove the wing window you will have to take out the quarter window assembly becasue I am sure once it is out you will want to replace the window gasket.

    750dp to big for a 351w?

    What are the specs on your cam? You may be creating a bog monster like I did when I started with a 750. It was a bog on the line but a bat out of hell on the highway.

    Fuel issue

    Still no go The gas cap is vented so I now think it just will not perform under a load. I drove uphill without the cap and it did the same thing. The sending unit is less than a year old and before I stopped driving the car to paint it, there were no issues. I can leave my neighborhood...

    Fuel issue

    Still having the same issue, the car will not drive uphill. I took the top off the edelbrock carb and the floats were in spec. I cleaned the fuel fliter. The fuel pump is fine. It runs great on flat ground. Basically when going uphill it starts to starve for gas and will die unless I...
