Taking the car out for the first time. couldn't make it to 2nd gear as it lost acceleration under load. the car revs fine, but lost acceleration under load at about 2500-3000 rpm. I can feel the lost even when pulling in and out of the driveway.
I reconfirmed timing, Dwell is 47.5 fuel pressure is at 29lbs 2.0 djet |

After a long day with Scott, we went over everything in the the car, cht, vacuums, and timing, we had no results. As he was about leave we decided to test the vacuum advance on the dizzy, and noticed that it was defective no movement when air is sucked out of the ports. He left and I went on to install a dizzy that he came with. The points were shot, I replaced them, lubed it and that solved the issue.
The car is running great with good power. ThanKs to all for all your help. It has been a great learning experience. I now know how to test, diagnosed and adjust just about everything on a diet. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) I can now move on the the next task. (interior) |
