    Spark in one cylinder

    ok so here goes, not sure why this happend, but I was doing some substitution with the wires, first taking the one that I was getting spark out of and switching it with the one right in front of it at the plugs, leaving the distributor end of the plugs the same, sure enough the spark stayed in...

    Spark in one cylinder

    good to hear, now I can move on to something else. I found this vacum device with some wires going to it. I belive the wires go to the fuel injector harness. and the other end of the vacum hose goes to the upper intake manifold underneath on the drivers side. I can't seem to figure out where to...

    Spark in one cylinder

    ok I believe the fuel pump relay is bad.however I don't think this is the main problem. the fuel pump was working, it was staying on all the time when the key was on. somehow I went around the fuse link and just wired it straight to the connector comming from the computer. that problem is fixed...

    Spark in one cylinder

    Just a thought. what if I have the fuel lines reversed. I have the hard line running from the tank, that's the easy part. then I have some rubber hosses connecting the hard line to the fuel rails. maybe I crossed the lines right before the fuel rails, I have been trying to find some pictures of...

    Spark in one cylinder

    Spark in one cylinder

    Sorry- I am keeping the Fuel Injection. The fuel pump is aftermarket external, and did not come on the 66. so if I am understanding correctly it is normal for the aftermarket fuel pumps to run constantly. I am using the stock 66 fuel tank. the motor is a H.O motor. I only removed...

    Spark in one cylinder

    How do you check to see if the relay is stuck? Never had the distributor out. took the complete engine and trans in one unit and transfered it over to the 66. only unplugging what I needed to, to remove the engine. Thanks Ford Kid

    EFI Fuel hose

    yea that's what I decided to do. I am routing the lines from the 86 in. I am having to re-bend them in a few spots with a tubing bender of course, but I think it's going to work. the only thing that is being a pain is the end of the lines by the tank. since there is so many bends in that area...

    EFI Fuel hose

    well cost isn't the problem, since I allready have the fuel line. I have 28 feet of the rubber line. the hardline that was on the 66 is shot. I could try to take the hardline off of the 86, the bends are a lot different but I can always bend the hardline again using a tubing bender which I...

    EFI Fuel hose

    Hey guys, posting this here because of the EFI setup on a 5.0 motor even though it's in a 66 mustang. Quick question about the fuel line. I have 30 feet of 1/4 inch EFI fuel line. I went with 1/4 inch because the fittings on the external fuel pump and the fuel filter are 1/4 inch, the motor is...

    86 Starter solenoid wire hook ups

    Yea I am fairly certain it's a wire problem. I have no voltage on that wire when the key is ON, and only 3 volts when the key is turned to the START position. Thanks Ford Kid

    86 Starter solenoid wire hook ups

    Hey, the little wire going to the little screw post on the starter relay only has 3 volts when the ignition is turned to the start position. since there is some voltage you think I should be looking for another bad ground. or is the switch bad. the switch wasn't bad when I took it out of the...

    yea I know I needed the high pressure fuel system, just needed to figure out how to get the return line pluged into the tank, what I did was drilled a whole into the stock fuel pickup, and silver solderd a pipe in there. it's strong and has no leaks as of right now. of course I haven't driven it...
