141. Re: Chrome exhaust tip (score: 1)
Author: Skye Poier <skye@ffwd.com>

An ANSA exhaust is only a couple of hundred bucks, and will not only look the part, but sound and perform better too. A new tip isn't going to affect the exhaust note much. What's next? 50 lbs of sti

Turn on the headlights and have someone turn the key. If the headlights go out, you don't have enough power to the starter. They should only dim slightly. Or, the starter pinion may have found a "tou

The common term for this is "deiseling" or "run-on". The engine is hot enough to continue to ignite air/fuel even though there is no spark. I could be wrong, but I think your 78 should have an anti-r

That was my thinking as well. The only way I can see incorrect timing causing run-on is if it's making the car run a lot hotter than it should be (over-retarded, I think). Then its sort of an indirec
