so let me know what u think



p.s. i go to ajust my timing the other day i make it a little to lose (distributer) so i fix that but must have moved it a bit car would not start.

oh wait before that checked timing and it was at 0* timing and stock its 10* BTDC (or so the svo is) (anyone know if thats the same for all 4 cyl stangs) so back to the first part

so i turn the dist some and the car starts right up check the timing and its at like 14*btdc ... bingo so i am done hehe would have put it back to 10* but my timing light was not working very well so if anyone local has one that i could barrow that would rock

Removing the tranny is the hardest part.

Voted for the shop based on reading your posts and guessing at your mechanic skills.

something is leaking bad enough (ie can watch it drip as the car runs) and u have to learn sometime IE i dont have 200 to take it somewhere so prob just ganna run it till it dies and save some money
