    Never seen a pink plug, I assume Barbies vette might have em but.....as far as fprs, mine is not connected to my computer and while the computer sends a signal to the fuel pump to turn on, thats as far as it goes as far as I know. Think of one as a valve that you can adjust the threshold of...

    Dizzy & Timing Issues (30*????)

    What I did was to stick my finger as far in the #1 spark plug hole as I could(if you have small fingers don't get carried away here) with one hand, and cranked the engine over BY HAND with a large socket until I felt my finger was getting pushed out of the hole by air pressure, I put a pencil in...

    Engine goes down, timing chain... Replacement engine or easy fix?

    1300? You should be able to rebuild the entire motor for that much, I found a nice set of heads for 500, and did the rest of the motor for 1000 but I did everything....try a different garage?

    Low mile 1996 351W cam question??
