    289 misfiring under acceleration

    Thanks for your advice... i located the problem, it was spark plug #8... it had eroded down (along with the insulator) till the gap was literally 1/8" of a inch. it was strange because the plug looked absolutely normal except it looked like someone pushed the electrode and the insulator down...

    289 misfiring under acceleration

    Short history... 289 with a motorcraft 2100 carb. It had a stall problem after 30 min of driving. We replaced the fuel pump (old one was well worn) ignition coil to a flamethrower, the car has pertronix instead of points and inline fuel filter to the carb. Took off the carb and put a new gasket...

Happened yesterday... after letting it sit for 10 minutes, pour a little gas in the carb and she fired right...

    sputtering problem

    One headlight dim

    Just recently one of my headlights went dim, I switched lights to see if that was the problem but it doesnt make a difference. I replaced the headlight switch, it doesnt make a difference. Does this sound like a voltage regulator issue? If so, I have looked in the parts catalog and they sell two...

    yea, i usually put it away but last year I got busy, and didnt take the battery out, the lights work, the headlights come on, the solenoid was replaced about a year ago, it clicks when I turn the key but after that is just a buzz.

    65 brake booster/master cylinder

    yes, he is going from a single cylinder non-power 4 drum setup to a 2 disk. He wants to upgrade to 2 cylinder/booster setup. I think he has decided to just stick with the non-booster setup, he'll just have to press a little harder on the brake.

    65 brake booster/master cylinder

    My neighbor has a 65 vert with 4 drums and a single circuit master cylinder. He is upgrading to discs in the front and wants to get a dual cylinder with a brake booster but was told to do so he would have to cut into his shock tower. is there any aftermarket kits that would allow him to do this...

    Battery/Starter/Solenoid

    Thanks, it is probably likely the problem as it was sitting for about 6 months and I didnt disconnect the battery, so it could have drained way down over the winter. Thanks

    Battery/Starter/Solenoid

    My 67 coupe 289 has been sitting over the winter. I have hooked up the charger overnight and when I try and turn it over I hear the solenoid click and then there is a buzzing noize, like click and then buzzz like one of those hand shaking practical joke gags. Could it be a weak battery or does...
