When I got the car it was not running because of a duraspark issues(no spark). The guy said the timing chain only has 200 miles on it and that he...
No compression #1, 3, and 4 and only showing 30 in #2. Not sure how good the tester is. Does this mean head gasket or could it still be rings...
How can tell what is causing no compression on number 1 of a 302 75 Mav? Would this cause it not to start? Thanks Bob
I'm going to check the compression on my 302 and see what I get. Could the starting issue be cause by a valve(s) being stuck open? Pinto info:...
No problem, I'll swing by at lunch either today or tomorrow and see what it has. The only one I see is a 77 on row 302 Bob
Thank you!!!
Jamie, I'm ten minutes from the Pull-A-Part in Augusta. What are you looking for there? I checked out their inventory last week. If anyone...

Checked the timing and I still can't start. The car turns over and every so often a nice flame comes out of the carb. For the heck of it I rewire...
Thanks for the replies and humor. I have a 75 Mav that will not start. I located the Duraspark issues and I can now get a backfire through the...
Thanks, I wasn't sure if it would be earier to turn by removing all the plugs. I now have my mini project for tonight.
Is it necessary to remove all spark plugs to turn the engine by hand to find TDC? Thanks Bob
Thanks for the replays. History: I bought the car a few months back and it wasn't getting a spark so I rewired the Duraspark last weekend and...
When trying to start a 75 Mav with Duraspak the engine is turning, but will not start. The starter solenoid is smoking. Any ideas on what to...
What's the best product to use to clean electrical connections? Especially the female plugs. Thanks Bob
Would factory 302 shorty headers work in a 72 Comet?
