Sorry for being late to the show...

As for $600 a year. That seems a lot considering this site likely has a very low bandwidth. Shared accounts on many Web hosts are just $3.00 a month and that in ...

Just a follow after several months of operation. The reason we suspected the air hat was when it was removed the Jeep ran terrific. Yes this is true but only half the story. My son managed to 3D print ...

Spring scale is a fishing scale. Not overly expensive or complex!

The seals on the knuckle vary. We used new rubber and reused the aluminum style backing plates. I’ve seen a variety of different ...

Hopefully you resolved this. For the 12V we settled on about 2.8ohms of primary resistance (combined coil and ballast resistor). Starts instantly. The electronic ignition module we are using recommend ...

Ignition wires are new but still appeared to be slightly leaky. The connections at the plugs were glowing in the dark. Tightened up and less but still same issues.

Adjusted timing and it affects w ...
