    Car wont start. Need help badly.

    It gets fuel just like its supposed to. The carb was just rebuilt before all this like 1 month ago. I pulled the whole front of the motor back off again last night, I have yet to see if they still lined up on the chain, but I do know all the rockers move evenly and freely so I dont think it...

    pinging part throttle, not full throttle

    I changed the intake gaskets and still have a leak in the same spots. I put silicone on both sides of the gasket and made sure they were aligned. Could my intake be warped and can it be planed like a set of heads so its straight again? Ill take a closer look at it but all ideas are welcome.

    pinging part throttle, not full throttle

    Hi, I have a 84 Capri RS with a 5.0. Anyways, it has a problem where it pings when at about part throttle, but if you punch it to full throttle, it doesnt, but if you let off to part throttle it'll start pinging again. The carb is a 600 Holley vacuum secondary carb and has just been rebuilt and...

    BBK O/R H pipes suck!

    I just had mine welded in the middle when I had new mufflers installed. I would have had the same problem if I wouldnt have since it was apart on the car I got it off of. No problems now though.

THere are 4 of them as...
