Yes closed as in pictureYou have a closed throttle body in the picture. Was it closed during the compression test?
Well. I assume it would have opened? The mechanic turned the car over using a washer on the starter solenoid.Yes closed as in picture
It also pulls a vacuum at idle. Holding the carb open was a step that came with Dad’s compression gauge. I do not know why that would be different now.no, the engine can suck enough air thru a throttle body that will idle....a leak down test can tell you much more about the condition of the inside of the motor than a comp. test.
I agree about the leak down test. You can tell where the air is going.no, the engine can suck enough air thru a throttle body that will idle....a leak down test can tell you much more about the condition of the inside of the motor than a comp. test.
I don’t know. Unfortunately I don’t know anything about the engine. Mechanic said he can probably tell me after it’s cleaned upCobra or explorer lower
Sorry. I misread the statement as a question.Like the General said, it is an explorer or Cobra/GT40 lower. The Cobra, GT40 and explorer all are very similar. Same bolt pattern and you can bolt any upper (Cobra, explorer/gt40) to any lower (Cobra, explorer/gt40). Mix and match wouldn't matter.
So assuming my SC is shot.Sorry. I misread the statement as a question.
Here is where we are today. Looks decent to me???So assuming my SC is shot.
If I don’t care about max HP could I just go for some new heads and get back to driving?
