And now I want an injector cleaner for no reason lol
That’s awesome! The cleaner.. but yeah looks like the engine was running lean at some point due to the white dusty spark plug
what happened to peter??? I've been overseas and just got back.
Looks like ceramic spark plug boots needed. TR6s are terrible. Look at the spark after 10K miles… and then look at the spark of an equally used Iridium. You will kick yourself.
MSD ignition is top notch provided it’s installed properly.
I stopped using black rubber O-rings because they took out the V.O.C.s and they only last 10% of the time of the originals. Now I only use the green ones meant for A.C. systems. (Same with all the rubber bushings in the suspension, now I only use Polyurethane).
Yeah, well a lot of times it’s a distributor under the water pump. That’s the problem with misfires.
only use "Cleaner" in the test bed friend,…
the reason why should be obvious
I would suggest you use something other than gasoline when testing the injectors. Gas is too volatile, I would use seafoam or some other cleaner for the injectors as a test fluid because it lowers the risk of turning into Jay Leno.
I found your channel during the recent DeLorean episodes. I enjoy the no filler content and the actual goals reached at the end of videos. It is refreshing to have someone say in this video this will be done and it is.
You wont see much variation in the injector test unless one really clogged or run the whole test
awsome great car………… what a BEAST
Now u got good spark probably burned out the coil with all the plugs working i was thinking, then u pulled that wire and I was shocked it ran lol
Still using a MAF With the super charger? why not map or Speed density?
Meniscus u learned in 5th grade lol
The coil wrapped around the spark plug wires to keep it in position in certain places
It’s pretty amazing with all the small faults you were able to drive it back.
That fuel injector cleaning is my next investment for sure.
So why not replace the wire?
Peter is awesome
In the future please show that you lubed the o-rings
The fuel injector test kit is awesome
Hey Alex, an easy way to deal with a locking gas cap that you don't have a key for is with a radiator hose removal tool. Or any tool that is like a heavy duty pick shapes like a hook. Just run the hook under the cap and lift up around the outer edge and the cap will come right off
.
I wonder why there arent any car part taste testers
helped my friend do an optispark change on his firebird with an LT1 and I thought that was bad, the corvettes have no space at all! glad I dont have one now
At 28:30 seconds is that a crack in the piston?
Love the channel i have a 1992 corvette with the lt1 stock for the most part i had my fuel pressure tested key on engine of I’m at 41psi. At idly I’m at 37 is that bad ?
Love old content from time to time and new👍 You RANDY are on top of it 💪 Keep up the great work my friend. God Bless you and your family always. RESPECT ✌️✌️
While I love the style and the sound of the LT1 in my '93 Formula the mechanical design of these cars is…well, let's say it, terrible. Getting to the rear two spark plugs is very difficult – and you have it a lot easier there with the hood of the Corvette containing the fenders too so you have a lot more space. In an F-Body all of this is covered…it's a nightmare. And let's not talk about the fuel pump that requires you to drop the tank which requires you to literally lower the entire rear axle…
It is cammed for sure, possibly the GM performance cam? LT1 for the win! Opti spark suck! Changed many of them over the yrs.
You bought it from kuwait auction right?
Nice😃
Most people just put an aftermarket coil on and expect more performance but what they don't get is the reason you could have aftermarket coil on it so you can Gap your spark plug wider
Just found this channel got me watching hours of the vette saga
At 34:00, that plastic material around the spark plug wires is called spiral wrap. In aviation we use it to protect wires from any abrasion on contacting surfaces due to vibration. Seeing it on those wires makes little sense to me due to the wires having heat sleeves. Awesome shop and cars!
So, I'm a carpenter. I don't know jack about cars. I ended up spending my day watching you fix this for some reason. I suppose it is like when I restore furniture. Just the act of taking something disused and making it nice again is fun to do and to watch. Kudos sir.
