Elite Motorsports has reported they're still trying to figure out engine combinations following the change in spec fuel to VP Racing Fuel's C-25 racing fuel. Evidently the burn rate is different than the fuel previously used.

I'll get pictures today.

1988 Mercury Tracer Wagon. Had the same engine/5 speed combo the Miata did that year. Was basically a Mazda 323, but done up for American market. Little meep meep horn, no AC on it, but had cruise with the 5 speed and tilt wheel etc. Topped out at about 90mph, but was very snappy up to 60! I am...

Any of many causes could be possible. Rather than , troubleshoot. First, at the time of the symptom, check for spark at the plug and check for fuel in the carb throat. No sense chasing one when it's the other.

Doug, Im not questioning what you have seen. But how would just 2 pinions even work? There would be nothing to keep things centered up located, I would guess the planet and the sun gears would always be trying to collide. What was the trick there?

...(FBBO) was right behind with 30.0 bonus points. More great picks! We have 15 players again this week and 14 different driver combos made up of: * 6 different Top Fuel drivers with three different Round 1 Quads containing 2 drivers each. * 5 different Funny Car drivers with two Round 1 Quads...

Are these some of what you are looking for?

Started a new toy

As mentioned above, if the drums are solid and not springy, then they are probably rusted to the axle. A few taps on the face and some heat often works.

Looking for a set of 3.91 gears for a 741 housing. New or used.

Yellow paint on the input is a hardened shaft. Though we run the normal run of the mill shafts at 900+ hp with no issue. Most BB 727 have 4 pin front planets. HD has 4 pin rear planets. Again we run 3 pin planets at high HP with zero failure. I've even seen 4 pin modified removing 2 pinions to...

How did it run before you put gas in it? Your problem started after putting gas in it. Drain the tank and put in known good gas. Otherwise, my next guess is the ignition coil. We need to be working from a baseline though. Does your car have a stock or aftermarket ignition system?

Both of you have my admiration for your tenacity. Bravo!

They don't call it Buttwiper for nothing.

I'd take it for the transformer and build a Jacob's ladder. ITS ALIVE! Heh, Heh.

1985 Omni GLH-T. Right at 2400 pounds. It was a great little car, fast and 34 mpg. Got crunched in a wreck back in high scchool.

Been down this trail. Many years ago bent the right side on our 63 Dodge drag car. Splines got stuck in the spool. A loosely attached brake drum can work as a slide hammer. I straightened a C body housing before finish welding last year. Did it by heating and quenching. It's a amazing how far it...

I wouldn’t be surprised if the originals were attached to the steel pedal arms using a vulcanizing process.

You've got a great wife, Ed. She's willing to help you out on the car is something not all of us can brag about. Even us youngerish guys struggle getting behind that dashboard. I'm stubborn and keep the seats in. I've gotten stuck in the floorboard a few times lol. I eventually am able to...
