Hi Montie,

What kind of header did you get? Are you sure it’s the right one?

James,

My wife bought me the steamer from HomeDepot.com I think. It works pretty well at shining up relatively clean surfaces, but it’s not too good at removing heavy deposits on the bottom of the engine.
The sheet metal on the top of the radiator I always thought came with the kit. It may have been fabricated when it was assembled, or my…[Read more]

Thanks Rich,

   I took her for a spin yesterday (about 70 degrees). Absolutely perfect! It is usually a little too cold to drive in the morning or night. I plan on not driving too much til’ spring. I still need new tires and random upkeep. But the wife just bought me a new steam cleaner so I had to try it out. It did a great job on the chrome, ne…[Read more]

Here are some newer pics~

That is really cool! I don’t think you could slide a piece of paper in that engine compartment though. I bet that is a fun car to drive (in a straight line).

That is awesome! I even like the yellow with the flat black grill.

Thanks Larry,

Yeah, I love my car and all, but I don’t want to die under it. Thanks for the tip-

All right, so FaceBook it is! hahaha Just kidding. I just like the other car “pages” on the site and thought an MG page would be cool too.

I agree with Greg. I also have a 2.3 and love it. It is easy to work on, parts are always abundant, and the performance mods are endless. Mine is wicked fast now, and I love working on such a user friendly power plant. My 2 cents

Richard,

   It’s simple. The more you contribute to the forum (discussion posts or comments) The more stars you get. In reality Paul and Mark should be 12 star Generals by now!

I think It takes 100 posts to make all 5 stars?

So, I re-timed the engine. I looked at the Mustang II manual and they suggested 6 degrees advanced. I ended up setting it to 10 degrees advanced and re-adjusted the mixture/idle speed.
   Wow!!! there is nothing as satisfying as new found Horsepower!! The difference in performance was amazing. First gear whips my head back and I’m not even done bu…[Read more]

Thanks Dan,

   I’m learning as I go!

Yeah,

I think mine just started leaking gear oil, yikes! good idea to check it. can you fill from the top by removing the boot?

Thanks for the tip James!

Just to add to that —   http://car-part.com/

You can type in any car, part, and your zip code. It will search all the salvage and junk yards in the area and let you know whats available. They even list the price sometimes. Cool site

Thanks Guys! I will replace the fuel filter, pcv set-up and I think the timing is off too…. It still runs kinda funky. I cant see the notches on the pulley to check the timing. I may need to remove some body panels. Hopefully not!

I just started it in the parking lot and let it get to running temp. I could not replicate the issue. I simply refit the pcv hose again. I hope that gets me home so I can check the rest.

   Where do I point the timing light to check timing?

phew! I hope so too…. Thanks for the tips, I hope it’s an easy fix!

Do you have pics you can post/send?   geoff104@yahoo.com

Thanks!

Coffey,
We need pictures!!! Sounds great-
