Re: help it wont start!



Spend twenty bucks on a set of plugs. Learned this the hard way. I personally only use AC plugs. R45S,R44S. You might be surprised.   Hows your starter. When they get weak they suck up all the power and there is nothing left for the ignition. Battery good, not old . Not crankind to easy, maybe pull plugs and see how it spins with no compression. Spun bearing will make it hard to spin over.

Try running a wire from the pos side of the batt to the pos side of the coil bypassing everything. Plugs good? Didnt backfire and possibly jump time? Pull no 1 plug get piston to top of cylinder, then check were the balancer lines up. Balancer could have slipped throwing timing with the light off. No vacuum leaks?

Wondering if anybody has any ideas,i know its hard to troubleshoot over e-mail but i don't knoew what to do. my 62 dart 440 361 slowly through the last couple of months doesnt like to start, last month i put a new coil on it and timed it with a lite. it's a 4 barrel car stock,cranks good but wont start. this last week i thought it was the points so bought new pretronix, new cap, no difference, seems to be getting fuel even dumped fuel down carb no change,pulled valve cover,valves go up and down fine,seems to have good spark at the end of plug wire,changed out the ballast,hot wired it,doesnt spit like timing, compression seems strong enough, not cranking to easy,i am at a loss, any help would be great Russell

You can reduce the fittings.
Another location I always liked was where the exhaust pipe hanger mounts in the "hump" area.

I'm working on installing an electric fuel pump back by the tank.  The pump I have has 3/8" inlet and outlet fittings, but my fuel lines are 5/16".  Is it ok to adapt down to the 5/16" line from the pump?  Will that affect the pressure?  The pump should put out 6 lb of pressure. 
 
I'm also trying to find the best location to mount it.  I think I'll end up putting it inside the far rear passenger side frame rail just before the rear bumper (on the opposite side of the bumper bracket struts).  It'll be at the back corner of the tank.  It'll be visable from behind, but I don't really mind that.  I don't see another place I like better that keeps it low and stays away from the rear suspension.
 
Opinions please.
 
Thanks
