    Missing AND smoking

    This is an ignition miss.....I know what that feels and sounds like. I've had it before. And it's definitely fuel coming from the exhaust.

    Missing AND smoking

    AFPR Questions

    I should be receiving my AFPR towards the end of the week and have a few questions. I had the car dyno'd a while back (Jan. 04) and was running a 9:1 A/F with the stock regulator. It was running so rich that it turned his "sniffer" off during the run. I know, crazy huh. Since then I have...

    Or swapping in a starter from a 92+ Ford/Mustang. They are much smaller and are high torque. Matt

    No, your problem sounds more like heat sink affecting the starter. My car would crank like a champ when hot but wouldn't catch. Matt

    I am talking about the one that is in one of the black metal lines that is just above the lower manifold. Matt

    Uuumm it's pretty small actually. the part # from Autozone is an SU201. It's made by Wells. Just the sensor being moved after years of being and sitting still could do something I guess?? The new sensor looks to have a bigger reading area. Matt

    Yup, starts right up. It's the sensor in/on the tube that's attached to the lower intake behind the alternator. I didn't have to drain the antifreeze when I changed the sensor. The coolant was all the way to the top and the spilling of it was minimal to none. Matt *EDIT* It costs...

    Well it's been 4 days since I changed the coolant temp. sensor and apparently that's what it was. I want to thank everyone for their help!!! Matt

    Trying my luck here...Hot starting woes...

    Takes more like 2-3 hours from the gauge reading 190ish. I guess this is what I will be changing next. BUT if this caused for the lean condition at hot start....wouldn't ether help or no? Thanks for the info. Matt

    Trying my luck here...Hot starting woes...

    I will try those steps but I'm just trying a few things too and well I HATE my car!!!! POS!!!!!!! I swapped in a distributor out of a car that was working. And guess what! It didn't wanna start when it was HOT. The distributor has been sitting for a while but regardless. So that basically...

    Well for ****s, I replaced my ignition coil and cap n' rotor and it's still doing it. We also tried the ether and it doesn't start. My question is, can the PIP (pick-up) go bad only when hot? Matt *PS* Also, the car runs great once started, even after it gives me trouble.

    Has Anyone noticed much power increase with 1.7 rockers?

    When I installed mine the SOTP dyno said I gained alot. I was actually very impressed. They are 1.72's and fit under the VC and the stock springs seem to be handling it well. Matt
