Need help tuning Quickfuel carb
I’ve got to go with plug wires at this point, compression is spot on not even 1 psi difference on all 8 cylinders.
Power valve is brand new and same with the gasket, metering block gaskets and fuel bowl gaskets are brand new.
And the fact that I got it to clear up a little bit by removing the wires and cleaning out all the dielectric grease from inside the wires at the connectors.
I’m wondering if this set of wires is just ruined from being taken on and off so many times and with having all the missfires cause of the dielectric grease.
The dielectric grease was causing some of it, I’ll never use that crap again.
Cause it is better the missfire is totally load dependent, the higher the load the more it missfires.
For example in 2nd gear going 50 mph it’s missing but not to bad then when I grab 3rd gear and maintain the same speed of 50 mph the missfiring is a lot worse.
Im going to see if I can isolate which cylinder it is with my timing light today and then swap wires with a different cylinder and see if it follows, then I’ll know for sure it’s the wire.
They all ohmed out ok which is odd, but maybe they are spark scattering too much like oldmanmopar said he saw with a cd ignition and Taylor wi
