Re: redtop motor problem

Hi built, the first thing is to check, ( swap the AFM ),with a known good one. the AFM acts just like a carb. so misfires that are not related to plugs, wires, and such are usually there. there can be a dead spot or more in it. this will also make it hard to start. there should be an electrical load...

sounds like they used a time-sert. much like a helicoil but better.

good luck with it.

Hi guys,
I know you're working hard on this stuff. One thing I would like to see is an option to "click" back to the main page.
