OK, I will try new pins and clips. I can't imagine them costing a whole lot so it couldn't hurt.

And to answer your question JCD, YES. It does it anytime I'm going above 15mph in gear or not.

I didn't replace the pin or clip but I did put a lot of grease on it before reinstalling it. It didn't seem worn and fit tightly but that doesn't mean anything I suppose. At about 15-20mph it...

I owned some Total Seal rings one time. I put them in a Isuzu 2.6 inline 4. All I can tell you is they never seated or something because afterwards I was ALWAYS having to add oil. The engine never...

Re: Which performance computer? GT1, GT2, or G-TECH (froggy47)

I bought the G-TECH. It's easy to use and seems accurate enough. The G-TECH has 2 versions as well. I opted for the $250 G-TECH so I could download the data to my computer and be able to calculate...

Re: Backfire on deacceleration???? (shane99)

Mine started that too. It runs great otherwise. I like the sound, because it grumbles almost like it is growling and makes a few popping sounds. If you gear it down on decceleration you can really...

Re: Amzoil vs. Mobil 1 What's the deal ? (CAJUN C4)

Re: Ignition Module (konroh)

konroh is right, I have an LT-1, so I do not have the setup oldace84 is talking about. I have the optispark. I emailed summit and Holley and they do not carry any ignition modules for my setup and...

Re: OIL CHANGE (Voltech_LT4)

There should be a emblem under the hood stating "Mobil1 5w-30". The manual will tell you 5w-30 or 10w-30 depending on the climate where you live. I live in the south where we have relatively mild...

Re: I need ADVICE on ignition system sparks! (95_C4_convertible)

I might be wrong on this, but I believe the sparks you’re seeing at your coil may be telling you that your coil is cracked. Your car should miss noticeably when it rains or there is a lot of...
