ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

    I guarentee you its out of time. Are you 15 degrees BTDC? You need a timing light. If you can time it just right by rotating the dizzy and listening then you are a hell of a guy. Advanced has a timing light for about $40. Actron or some chit. Get the car warm, bridge the diagnostic connector terminals, hook up the light to the #1 plug wire and beam that light into the timing hole. Rotate the dizzy and watch for 15 degrees on the flywheel. Tighten dizzy. The end.

    thanks dude, it seem a lot easier of what i have read about it, i will give a try tomorrow and let you know if the problem persist. many thank again

      Hi again!

      i have checked my timing this evening at my school with a snap on numeric timing light, and my timing is correct the way i have adjusted it. i have a doubt on my ground, especially my alternator ground since my light "bouce" a little in dash, headlight, and my little voltmeter i have installed also bounce between 14 and 14.5v, i think i will check all my ground. and if its not that i will, at last change my evap canister.

      i hope it will fix my problem, i do a lot of highway every day and its boring when i
      miss some power like that...
