Bad Luck?
Ok guys, tell me this isnt bad luck....Started out when i got my motor running we thought it was jetted a little high, but my chrome headers turned colors so we almost thought it was lean. ran like crap didnt wanna start, then it wouldnt stay running when you would move it. and it would always pop through the carb. we really are carb. geniuses as much as it doesnt sound like it! lol. Then we get that halfway straightened out (carb was bought on ebay and the guy didnt know how in the hell to tune a carb.! So then its running ok to take for a drive. now its running a little warm for my likings at about 180 and sometimes climbing in 45 degree weather! So i park it for the night. Get up next morning and the freaking thing will not start. troubleshoot forever checking connections, dist., coil, never thinking to check the BRAND new mallory pos ignition box that we installed. sure enough it was the ignition. Tell me this isnt bad luck so far! lol
