overheating
Dr. Jim:
GET THAT TIMING BACK! To where it should be!
Or a very degrees slightly in advance.. But!
A few degrees, + or -, past a certain point can really destroy an engine, power and/or mpg!
If it is not set correctly, you'll have the engine fighting itself to run!
That Is! Not A Good Thing!
I'm sure that you have checked this!....
BUT! Also...
Is you rad. large enough for the new engine ?
Oh! By The WAY!
Most engines/water pumps are build/designed to run on a
50-50 antifreeze/water solution!
W/O which, you'll induce caviation, which is another BAD! Thing!Last edited by cptbil; 08-26-2004 at 10:48 AM.
