Nice video. I have 2 msd ignition boxes for my nascar. swapped coil from 8250 to 8252 msd blaster, as it was just bogging down under load. now car just starts and dies after 4 seconds. tried both the msd 6tn box and msd hvc box, same exact result. I guess it must be distributor then? It's a brand new coil, and fuel is all good, carb is new. I was going to start checking wiring too first to be sure!!

Presently chasing a sudden crank no-start issue. It’s getting fuel, spark plugs are a bit rough so replacing, but I’m thinking this is going to be the resolution at the end of the day. I’ve avoided the HEI hoping it wasn’t related… but it appears the time has come 😂 Thank you for the extremely thorough video from someone learning on her own ❤

Super organization of your power tools

Good video. I tried solutions like this in the past. Just took my clutter and condensed my clutter (if that makes sense). I ended up just *organizing* my cordless tools with a pegboard setup, which is much more manageable and functional imo.

You should measure for level now that the shelves are under load.

Thanks for the video. I really like this set. For me, seems like a good solution for truck tools on the go. The only issue I have is I wish there was a base to lock it into place when traveling. I.e. like the Milwaukee pack out system - they have shelving and base units you can install in your truck to keep in place.

I’m just getting into engine building and if I’m correct, since this is carburetor, it’s self tuned from the carb and doesn’t need an ECU right?

THEY'RE WHISPER QUIET!!!

Hello! Don’t know if this videos a little too old to get a comment back but I’m having some trouble. On my 80 Camaro with a 650 electric choke carb. Basically I have it tunned really well starts right up and runs great only problem is when I cold start it it doesn’t go to a high idle it just goes to normal idle, and I’d have to give it some gas to warm up but once the cars started it never stalls on it always stays running. I know this isn’t really that big of a deal but I’d like it to work properly yk idled up at 1500 and work its way down to 1000, right now it’s more like the idle raises once it’s warmed up and the chokes off from 800 ish idle to 1000 warm.

What size is that engine?

Awesome engine brother. I had an old jeep cj 5 set up similar to yours ...I called her lightning. Good vid amigo

What kind of Buick is that

man my el co has been at the paint shop for a month now. Cant wait to be back in the G BODY. I swear its almost like depression without the car! haha

Solid content, brotha! My advice was going to be exactly what you ended up doing! Leave the car alone, and make that new .004 spot your home on the practice tree! Good luck homie

I got another question sir. Does the catalytic converter need to be on or no? What are the perks ?

Wheelies , look like the car just opened a can of whoop ass

Best I ever cut is a .011 The first time I mashed it and saw sky I panicked and got off it. WHAM, that front end dropped too hard. I had to get new front springs. Sucks ya got beat off the lights. Maybe you over-compensated, afraid of the Red?

Is that a Buick Riviera in the background?

I couldnt see how you grounded the spark plug?

I thought Chemo treats cancer? Good enough for me. 😌🤣

Sir, I have a important question. I have a 1981 monte carlo with 267 V8 engine. I rebuilt it with what parts were left in the trunk. I can't find a prominate answer on if they used vacuum or non vacuum distributor? I don't have a CCC (ecm) on my kick panel. Anything info would be greatly appreciated

What’s a good brand or one to get like the d2000 flame master

I found one locally. A Soldier brought down from Kentucky. Is 3500 a good price?

And you never have to worry about locking it up cause no one would go to jail for stealing a EL CAMINO

Brought one for tight spaces where you can't swing a hammer.

Weird question but what freaking size are those screws!??? Out of 2 tool sets no sockets fit!! I'm about to take some channellocks to it

Do you have stock or upgraded brakes on the front? And your set up is manual correct? No assist

Awsome video.Straight to the point ,Straight to the problem.

I just purchase an msd 8401 coil cap with the spark plug looking device on it to replace my gm oldsmobile hei distributor's internal coil to an external 12 volt oil filled coil.I got stuck a few times out of no where.One thing about my 1980 oldsmobile delta 88 is, when it runs it runs.But once in a blue moon the car 's engine just quits. I read where 99% of the time the epoxy layered coil gradually from heat dissolves causing the layer of winding separated by the epoxy to touch causing more resistance in the coil slowly killing the ignition module.So if you change the module and not the coil as well , if the coil was what destroyed the module in the first place ,why wouldn't it destroy a new replacement module in minutes.Especially if the coil is at that stage for the module to burn out.Reguardles of any heat sink gel under the module. I heard a lot of people have done this with no problems .So l'm giving it a try.And looking at your modification as perhaps if needed the next step.Damnskippy!

That is a serious looking rear end. I am a little intimidated thinking about taking the rear end off for restoration on my riviera. But it must be done…… eventually.

Snapon two by something

It’s that wear lines on your yoke?

Always enjoy watching your videos, man. Have fun at the track 👍

What’s the part number?

Any tips on getting that choke cable with the spring back into the carb?

Cold or hot idle ? Thats not the correct terminology

Where did you order the circuit board and what was the number mike

It’s cool that the only time you actually used the hammer, you completely obfuscated it from the line of sight of the viewer. Way to go! 🎉👍🏼

Thank you for all your '65 Riviera videos!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hope you double checked the fluid level in that rear, I don't remember if I drained it or left fluid in it.

Have you seen videos of guys using Progression Ignition? Looks like a cool idea, although I've seen 2 fairly big KZfaqrs have the coil fail, but apparently the company sourced them from someone else.

Nice work man!

Well….. Take the 7.5” apart further so we can see the damage.

Where do you get them?

Regal all day

Does this same adjustment work w/o electronic choke as well?

I also have a lot of those sentimental tools.. I have a very old level that's been passed down, that is wood and brass and I love it ... nice work 👍

Love the Riv in the background

Brother thanks much
