Need some ac compressor brackets for a 84. Car was bought without them, so I'm not even sure what I need.
Unfortunately, the problem is back. It's sporadic, not occurring every time I drive it, but when it does happen the engine cuts power at 3000rpm consistently and backfires in the exhaust.
I don't...
Had some more free time this weekend. New in tank and external pumps went in. I wanted to check the fuel tank and decided why not upgrade the fuel pumps since they are 30 yrs old an all. Stock...
Ran a compression test tonight. 98, 95, 97, 95. Engine was cold and throttle closed. Numbers seem low, but consistent. Thoughts?
Oh and keep in mind those numbers came off a cheap harbor freight...
Its a stock 84 dual pump setup. What all do I need to convert to a single pump system? I'm guessing i'll need a new hanger assembly, 255 lph pump for a 87-93 5.0 and a ranger filter to replace the...

No, I power it on, hit test. 00 comes up, engine revs a bit and nothing...
spout was in when I checked the timing. Any ideas on why i can't run a KOER test?
Had a few hours to work on the car. Checked the TFI harness starting at the plug to the distributor and working all the way up to behind the valve cover. Everything looked great, even the metal...
Thanks MikeFleming, I will check those areas as well.
Thanks again Mike. I will look over those areas and report back.
Thanks Mike. I checked the battery with the car running and it was charging at 14.0 volts. I'll check the grounds and look over wiring. Is there any specific wiring areas I should pay extra attention...
After a few years sitting, I got the 84 SVO (LA3 swap) back up and running. All was well for a little while, but it is having some intermittent misfires. Ran a KOEO test and here is what I got:
