carb issues

Dark Knight · 10-01-2006, 10:05 AM

Had a couple holley blue pumps... both were louder than hell.. noth are in the dump somwhere. GOt a mallory comp 140, nice and quiet.. sat for a couple years with fuel in it then tried it and it still works.. going on a friends BB 67 coupe.

Holley does make a quiet blue pump now.. but they're almost $100 more than the regular blue pump..

Well, as you can see my plugs look new and the wires are good. This is not the same as when a wire goes bad, because I have had that before too.

82GT-
I have the power module filter thingy on there now. Although, I have jump started the car SEVERAL times this year....so that part I didn’t know. Are you actually saying with that Mallory Unilite, we can’t jump start the cars?? I did get the book, going to study in the squad car tonight with any luck of a dead night. Thanks bro!!

Jester-
I have thought several times of going with the Duraspark, but they are so darn big compared to the nice little Unilite, but then again at least they work.

Unfortunately, I may work on it tom morning, but odds are it will be wed before I can get to it.
Stay tuned,
Ryan

You can jump start the car but you MUST unplug the module before you do it though, otherwise, it slowly kills the module. It's written in the instructions but most people don't read them because they figure they already know how to install a dizzy.

We got a comedian in the house everybody

Seriously, I usually read all that stuff, but I guess I didnt read or remember that part. That makes me suspect a little bit more that the module may be bad.

Thanks for the insight bud!
