Ok, I have a 66 Mustang with a 1989 5.0L engine, its hard to start most of the time. and worst when the engine warms up. It has a Fox Windsor wiring harness,

I have tried the following, replace external fuel pump for internal one, replaced transmission plate to the T-5, new starter, checked grounding to starter, checked timming, replaced new battery, I can't think of anything else, I know someone has encounter same problem.

Its like it has to much compersion, but the engine is stock.

Any comments would be appericatied


Thanks for your time
