    Wierd 5.0

    My buddy just bought an 88 GT (pictured below). It's got the whole HCI thing done. I drove it back most of the way (200 miles). It didn't take me long to realize that 1st gear was USELESS. Me -> :scratch: Then I get on the highway and I'm in 5th gear at 70 mph turning a little over 3,000...

    Timing Too High, Backfiring After Hci Swap

    For Google purposes. 1993 Notch, 5 speed Problem: After installing GT40X aluminum heads, B303, and a crappy SSI intake, the car backfired out the exhaust, out the intake, and would not run without 30 degrees of timing. Fix: Finally. After the car sat for 2 years, my neighbor did the valve...

    brakes are really hard to push after b303 cam install!

    Just had the same problem. Sure enough I forgot to connect the vacuum line from the upper manifold to the closest port (left most looking at it) on the vacuum tree. :nice:

    Flooding Gas or Harmonic Balancer

    Hose is dry and it's not fuel in the intake, it's oil. Harmonic balancer seems ok since I see no fuel in that hose. This car was doing this bucking and spitting and dieing BEFORE the h/c/i job just not this bad. You can't even get it out of the driveway now. Timing is at 12. Fuel pressure is at...

    Flooding Gas or Harmonic Balancer

    We were just discussing that - And I found gas in a vacuum line on the intake. I will check that tonight! :nice: We have a couple of thoughts... All dealing with vacuum. The thing is dumping gas somewhere and it keeps fouling out pistons so it's either timing, fuel or vacuum I'd like to think.

    Flooding Gas or Harmonic Balancer

    Hey guys, My 93 (5 speed, 66k) was running great after the H/C/I install last year. The problem was that my timing was either set at or skipped to 30*. I can't remember. I upped the fuel pressure to 50psi like an idiot. :rolleyes: The car started backfiring. I brought timing back down to...

    engine combo

    Double check your clearance with gt40's/TFS or E303 and 1.7's... Find someone with this combo, or check with the store you buy the 1.7's from. There is also a Ford SVT hotline but I don't know if it's operational anymore. I bought 1.7's and found out that with my B303 and gt40x heads I had to...

    Gas in the oil pan again... Fuel Pressure Question

    Gas in the oil pan again... Fuel Pressure Question

    93 5speed 66k HCI Gas is in the oil pan again. Car sputters and surges and pops. I'm guessing I blew the diaphram in the Adj Fuel Pressure Regulator because the last thing I did was jack the fuel pressure up to 55... There are a couple of spark plugs with thick black soot. Heh live and...

    Popping Exhaust, Loss of Power

    Checked the following... Plug wires Timing Fuel Pressure Roller Rockers Still knocking and popping. :nonono: I'm putting the stock rockers back on. If it still gives me problems that will narrow it down. I can use the stock rockers on pedistal GT40X heads right?

    Popping Exhaust, Loss of Power

    Thanks guys I'll try that. I'm also going to drop that fuel pressure back down a bit and see if that helps. What still weirds me out is that the spark plugs can be seen firing in the dark, I'm guessing I need to buy another set of plugs as well. I may have run too much fuel to them.

    Popping Exhaust, Loss of Power

    Yes sir I have both the C&L 19lb and 24lb sizes. Currently the 19lb MAF tube is in there because I have the stock injectors in it. I may drop that fuel pressure back down tonight and try it. It is DEFINATELY LOADING and then popping. I just don't know from what. The car was running great and...

    Popping Exhaust, Loss of Power

    Well I checked the pressure and I'm running 55psi but I'm running the stock 19lb injectors. I need to put the 24lb injectors on so I can knock it back down but I'm waiting on the Taylor Wires to get here first.

    Wheels/Lowering Question...

    :nice: Didn't order springs... I'm going to wait until another issue is fixed, then take the front springs out and find out if they are the rear springs because this car sits WAY too high.

    Popping Exhaust, Loss of Power

    You maybe right but I'm not gonna jump to conclusions just yet. I'm ordering some Taylor 8mm wires right now. My buddy had this exact problem on his 347 stroker and those Taylor wires fixed it.
