Car: 89 Iroc-Z Convertible Engine: 383 TPI Transmission: T-5 Axle/Gears: 411 | I have a firing problem not a timing problem I just rebuilt a 350tbi in a 91 rs. I put a Lunati Voodoo cam. 268. It is bored .060 over. anyways.
The other day when I started it up for the first time, everything worked. The timing light functioned normal.
Yesterday: I started the car trying to get everything lined out. It sounded like it had a couple of dead cylinders. We stuck the timing light back on, and no light. The light will read off every wire except 1 & 2.
I tried switching the plug wires. That didn't work. I then replaced the cap and button. No luck. then the coil... then ignition control module... still nothing? So, I then redid all the grounds on the car. Somewhere in this process, I got the car running. It is kinda running on all 8. however: I do know that I am still not getting adequate spark to the front 2 cylinders. (they are firing, but the timing light is not reading them.) When I rev the motor, the light starts picking up.
I do know, the firing order is right. I checked it several times. I also know that the distributor is not 180 out.
Has anybody else ran into this problem on here? Or, does anybody else know what could be wrong?? | | |
