    Hey folks, my 68 Mustang with a 302, is in storage for the winter, but I have been watching endless videos on modifications, etc., anticipating some upgrades that I may do in the spring. I only got four drives out of the car before I had to put it into storage after purchase. It does have the...

    Hi.. I have a 66 Mustang Inline 6 with single barrel carb. My problem is with the vacuum line to the distributor connection at the carburetor. If you see my pictures the carburetor has an non threaded vacuum port (#1) with a small flared pipe as the connector. This piece has come out...

    I need some education. The Shop Manual, Chapter 9, Table for C5GF-12127A distributor lists centrifugal advance in degrees at specified RPM's. I.E. at 2000 distributor RPM's, the advance is 8.5-10 degrees. The max centrifugal advance limit is 14 degrees. So in my car, I know the engine RPM...

    Back here again...I just received my freshly rebuilt engine and was getting ready for its first start. I set the firing order.... and by my mistake to a 302H.O. not regular 302. When trying to start it for about 30 minutes, obviously it wasn't going to start. Did I damage anything up in the...

    Hey all, I just finished installing my DUI distributor and Weber 32/36 carburetor in my manual 67 6cyl 200i. The car will slowly accelerate up to a certain RPM, but when I hammer on the throttle it almost instantly bogs down. It's most noticeable in 2nd gear. In first, I can get it to about...

    Hi all, I've just finished up the 32/36 Weber carb / DUI dizzy swap on my manual '67 6cyl, and am just finishing up the vacuum lines. The carb had a spot for the PCV valve on it (above throttle plates), but I keep reading about how the PCV valve and the vacuum advance should both be installed...

    Ok everyone, I’m stumped. Working on a 68 mustang with a 302, been trying to install this distributor for 3 hours and no luck. Long story short, I know the oil pump shaft is engaged. My issue is the cam gear and the gear on the distributor doesn’t seem to want to fully engage. Only about...

    Hello I am quite new to owning a 1968 Mustang 390 and new to this forum. I am having an issue with timing and cannot get the car to idle properly and was looking at my current harmonic balancer and cannot seem to locate the timing marks properly.

    Hello everyone, I am in the process of pulling the 351W from my 70 mach 1 to go through it and clean everything up. I purchased an air gap intake for it and have read and heard that there are issues with distributors not clearing these or the performer intakes. I've gotta think someone here has...

    So now I think only 1 problem to fix before I can put the car on road. This is what I’m facing now. I recently changed my intake and had to take the dis out. Now I can’t seem to figure it out. My balancer doesn’t have timing written on it. So when I did try to put the dis back in after finding...

    Hi. I was having some weird timing issues with my 351w with a b303 cam in it. I pulled the cap off the distributor and there was a big chunk of magnet flying around, the rotor wiggles, and the vacuum advance doesn't do anything. The trouble is as it is a roller cam it needs a steel gear (I...

    I know this wiring is a hot mess, but my question is with this type of distributor (electronic ignition) does it need a ballast resistor. I know what it does but is it necessary?
