Re: Mixed plug wires?
<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Dave Rifkin</div><div class="ubbcode-body">As far as I know the mileage is correct on the car. I cannot thank Albert enough for tackling this challenge. As I have mentioned before, I had this car to numerous "Corvette experts" and none of them picked up on these things that Albert found in the short time he's had the car.
Albert forgot to mention that the distributor was not installed correctly; when he brought the #1 cylinder to TDC the rotor was pointing to the #8 cylinder instead of #1. The plugs were gapped at 42 instead of 35 which is what Albert said would have been recommended.
I can't wait to see how much better she runs when I get the car back. After 8+ years I'll finally have the car I had hoped I'd have when I first bought it. </div></div>
I cant take all the credit, my buddy Joe is the driving force on the diagnostics..he's a sharp cookie..seen it all [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img] ..he may chime in here later.
