Just for shyts and giggles i changed the firing order up. I put it on the non ho firing order. It ran with no misses. However when i go to put it in gear now it stalls haha just my luck
when trying to add timing which way do you move the distributor? left or right if your looking at the nose of the car? i was going to make a post about timing a car but you beat me to it.
how do you find TDC? is it on the crank pulley? if i was just wanting to add a little timing would i have to first get the car to TDC?
You put the timing light clamp on the #1 plug wire, then it will automatically light up every time the #1 plug fires. So it kind of “finds” TDC for you.how do you find TDC? is it on the crank pulley? if i was just wanting to add a little timing would i have to first get the car to TDC?
Add a little timing? This is a joke, right?
Why is it a joke? If he wants to go from 10 degrees advance to 12 degrees advance said:Sorry..just never heard that term before. I've heard of advancing or retarding, never heard "adding". Excuse me.
Well its a 85 gt 5.0 with an automatic transmission. I dont think those were h.o motors. Only the carbed manual ones were. This has central fuel injection
This the firing order i found for the 85 h.o 5.0
1-3-7-2-6-5-4-8
This is the one that was wrong but made the car run better.
1-2-7-3-6-5-4-8
Each firing order is counter clockwise..
I wasnt told anything about a swap, although the motor looks like it was just painted recently..
If thats the 85 firing order im gonna be P!SSED i called 4 ford dealers to get it. I couldnt find it on the net.
