Timing is steady using a simple old fashioned timing light on No.1.

Also confirmed ballast resistor is OK.

ECU seems to test OK, BUT I only have 10.8v on feed wires.Earths all OK. Must be losing voltage in the wiring? 5.2Volts at the coil. Ran a temporary feed direct from battery. 6volts at the coil. Made no difference.

Found a small fuel drip from centre carb RH primary booster. New float needle O ring and re-adjusted float level. Thought this would be the solution but no. Idle vacuum 16 in park, 13 in drive. Sorry to sound stupid but do you mean clean the idle bleeds with a wire or literally put wires in to...

Fortunately I have cousins in Ca and Or so get parts sent to them. I'm there July.

Thanks for suggestions. Not worked on car today but will respond when I have.

Pretty sure outboards aren't dripping but will check again. Got the elec ign module here in UK. Black with gold heatsink. Could be that I suppose. Found a test online so will try that tomorrow.

Here is a link to a video of my engine. 512 sixpack shaky idle 512 stroker, 10.3 compression, stealth heads, ultralight crank, sixpack, modest street/strip Comp hydraulic lifter cam, headers (unknown brand), standard Mopar electronic ignition. 727 trans. Engine sounds like it is missing...

My starter is pretty new. Am going to try heat shielding.

Good idea . Will do that

Have direct battery to engine earth. Will double check but think it's OK.

Checked and can't see any. Will look again.

My recently rebuilt 512 sixpack with Al. heads and a modest cam with hydraulic followers starts from cold and runs well. However sometimes when hot the (mini) starter struggles to crank the engine and it spits back through the middle carb. Allow to cool and it starts fine. Timing is set at 35...

Finally fitted my six pack to my 440. A while ago I downloaded information on tuning them (can't remember where from). One author says - ",.....I like a six pack to come in quick,....you'll have to buy 2 spring kits, replace with the "white" springs if you want a quick responding set-up,....if...

.....or perhaps it doesn't matter precisely the gauge, just the number of turns?

Long shot but does anybody know the gauge of the enamelled copper (?) winding wire in the temperature gauge. Mine is cooked.

All from same supplier so should be OK

I am dealing with spots that have appeared in my paintwork on some places eg. It is on the side of the left front fender but not on top. Paint is cellulose. The pic is after rubbing down with 120 grit. Are these micro blisters? What do you think caused this. Can I paint over now or do I need to...

I did the inside of outer skin but not under the plastic panel. Will do that too. My panels are leather trimmed which probably helps. Hinges are rebuilt.

Yes, I have vapour barrier. I guess I must just go through everything and make sure it's tight and damped or insulated. The cloth on the lock/handle rods may make a difference too.
