Re: My Bargain v8 vs what to do

Yeah i am thinking i will remove the inlet and look for signs of corrosion.
if it is just that i'll throw the one on i have here and see how she goes.
if it isn't the problem i'll just wreck the car out.
probably worth more in parts anyway it has a few parts i can use on my other car as well

Re: Spark Plugs

Seen it again today high comp v8 with a cam running rich not tuned
Ngk plugs with the v groove in the electrode worked fine then he changed to new standard ngk plugs they fouled and the car wouldn't even start.
He then changed back to the original started up ran fine.
