Problem With New First Gen
#11
well, before I read that post.....
I went out this AM and again tried to start it....nothing.
Double checked the dizzy timing...wayy the **** off...
Re-set the timing
tried again to start...nothing...
I pulled the plugs and tried again, no spark ?!?!!? Did the second ignitor just quit on me?
Welp, I said F it, and tossed the MSD in there. Direct fire, leadings only. Damn thing started up on first turn...
It runs for ~10 seconds, then dies...won't restart unless I pump gas once, then Vroom, right back on. Accel pump is working, the rest of the carb is not. I'm not happy that the motor seems ti be fine.
Today I:
Installed MSD inside the car, added third coil, replaced second faulty ignitor, added e-fan, new rad hoses, fresh coolant, oil change (10w30) new NGK plugs, new moroso wires (I made to length), new fuel filter, new fuel lines.
Now I'm looking for another answer. I could rebuild the carb, but I'd rather have a bit more go, you know? Since the motor will be internally stock for awhile, only other mod I can think of doing would be a "true-duals" exhaust setup.
Will I need an upgraded nikki for that? Anything I can do one my own? What about IDA's or sidedraft? Yaw power, or the "sterling" carb?
