Wanna check fuel pump again?

21'st century DIY....I love it! Congrats!

Your's is the nicest!

Scimitar GTE with optional all alloy "GT" wheels produced by Mill Accessory Group Ltd, (later referred to as Princess Anne Wheels)

I hope to... depends on schedules. I am usually in Eastern NJ near the PA border.

I agree too, especially with consideration to Z.T. proving your carbs.

OK I'll start digging The guy owes me a 2400 Valve Cover too so ......maybe 5 birds with one call.

Thanks Alan, Carl, if you want the re-branded ones, I may be able to track the current owner. I brought the car ('74 2+2) back to life in 2006 for a club member to sell. I think the car and new owner (not club member) is within 100km of my home so it should be easy to track down.

Did you mean: "The cost is also much easier to beer." ? btw I always wondered why soundproofing smelled like an old bar floor.

Here are some "Made in England" MAG wheels that are on a local car. They look very similar to the Dunlops: Web Research: MAG: Mill Accessory Group Found some similar on French Car Forums with 914's.

Looks quite restore-able! I looked at that one a while ago and talked to the owner but passed as they could not send better photos. Good buy!

Replace all fuel hoses (including those at pump and tank. Your new exhaust will drone ~ 2800rpm....http://atlanticz.ca/zclub/techtips/exhaust/index.html.... get a glass pack too. For EFI, this should keep you out of trouble: http://atlanticz.ca/zclub/techtips/EFI&fuel.htm For the throttle body, spray it with throttle body cleaner.

I have a similar one made in Italy that I picked up a while ago, it was a great improvement in driving "feel".

Or get tokico springs that are shorter but stiffer and don't need the compressor to install.

I've used this type with the head off.

mmmmmmmmmm gooood...........1,000,000 maggots cant be wrong.

Waiting for Jim or Dan to chime in. btw moose meat is delicious!

For reference here is a tool for measuring coil energy/voltage on an EFI Z 18mm gap

Thinking out loud: It seems fuel related but - ZTherapy's trial ruled that out. - high rpm at 13.9-14.2 under load can be lowered a bit from jut but pump seems fine. - assume fuel is good. Could also be spark but - different distributors - different caps - coil tests ok - no spark scatter at high rpms Whats left? - valve train problem? But why only at one point and under light load? - other devices tied to manifold leaking air under light load (brake booster?) - ????

as we all have done what you did in some form or another....and you are a real man for posting your sincere apology above! THAT makes this site so much better!

Does the popping change when you rev by hand with car stationary vs. slow acceleration vs. aggressive acceleration? Middle top (weak coil at acceleration). I am still wondering about slop in the spindle to the distibutor causing scatter but that would get worse with rpm. Could be some weird harmonic in the valve train.

Wow this is frustrating. Maybe it is carbon/compression problem or valve train problem.... does not seem like spark or fuel. btw I assume different distributor caps and rotors were used?
