    Silly question but... change timing after swtiching ECU?

    and Dana67Dart Thanks, I'll do that. I borrowed a spare ECU from the GTX and ordered a new one for the Duster. I'll wait for the new one to arrive before trying to adjust anything since it might change again so updates only next week. O also ordered a ballast resistor and a dist cap and yes, it...

    Silly question but... change timing after swtiching ECU?

    Long story short the car was turning on, doesn't matter how long warming up on the drive it would stall after 300 yards to a mile after start driving. Not a chance to make it work again, the only way was to wait about 5 min and it would turn on and work as normal for the rest of the day without...

    Silly question but... change timing after swtiching ECU?

    I'm still running some tests but apparently I had a bad ECU for a very long time. Yesterday I replaced it and the car seems to be running fine but was popping a lot in high acceleration. Is it normal having to check timing after replacing a bad ECU? Don't want to start fiddling with it and mess...

    Electric issue?

    Thanks all. I'll spend some time tomorrow doing a few of the suggestions here today and tell how it goes. I can always borrow something from the other car to try. :D Interesting... even when it's unbelievably hot?

    Electric issue?

    Yes, it cranks as normal just won't fire up. Haven't checked battery voltage yet since I need help (battery is in the trunk) and didn't check the lack of spark either since I was considering fuel issue so far.

    Electric issue?

    Hi all. Here's what's going on: Car has a Holley 650 on a 360, car will start as normal in the morning after one or 2 pumps. After it starts I usually pump a bit more and then use the choke to warm it up a bit, then off to the road. 9 out of 10 times the car will die on the road at some point...
