Re: Help Wanted - Drag Racing Ignition/Fuel (?) Problems

["Dennis C." <dennis.2914@xxxxxxxxx>]

Just a thought or two:

Do you have a fuel pressure regulator and if so what is the fuel
pressure setpoint?
Just thinking that you may be forcing fuel past the float needle
valves and flooding.  Have you checked the spark plugs to see how they
were burining after your run?

Take Care
Dennis

Please address private email -- email of interest to only one person -- directly to that person. That is, email your parts/car transactions and negotiations, as well as other personal messages, only to the intended recipient. Do not just press "reply" and send your email to everyone using the general '62-'65 Clubhouse public email address. This practice will protect your privacy, reduce the total volume of mail and fine-tune the content signal to Mopar topic. Thanks!
