  1. Sorry for the dark photo. Are one of these yellow plugs the the one to short out to do the timing?? Nothing on the shocky tower
  2. Thanks very much guys. I’ll definately have a look at all that. To do the timing, do you need to bridge something out. I remember on my ae86 the was a little box on the shocky tower but this one doesn’t have that. Could it be somewhere else? Or does the 82 not require to do that bridge out?
  3. thanks ke70dave. I've only ever played with old fords so a few of these things I'm going to have to do my research for this one. i love the look of the little hatch. the one i had years ago went really good but whoever had it before hand had made it that way i'm assuming. the one i have now my 4 year old could nearly run the quarter quicker (it might not be that bad haha)
  4. hi guys, i'm new to the thread/forum world. i'm after some knowledge and advice. I've picked up a nice little 1988 twin cam. it's pretty tidy and came with a few spare parts. i owned one of these years ago and it went really well. this one not as good though. i don't know a lot of it's history, but it sounds like it was owned by a mechanic, and had a bit of a freshen up engine wise but no major mods that i know of. the thing is though it lacks a lot of power, it revs very poorly and when it should start to do it's thing around the 4000 rpm mark there is very little rev or power change. i haven't started playing with plugs or timing yet. it does have extractors and exhaust. standard airbox. the only leak it has seems to be from the dizzy. the car runs really well but, nice and smooth although the idle it super low, below 800rpm cheers herbs
