trout_hound Posted October 20, 2009 Share #1 Posted October 20, 2009 I was having a problem with my 72 Z hesitating and backfiring when warm, and no top end HP. I did a complete tune up, valves, points, plugs, carbs, fuel filter, and still had the problem. I never would have thought of it, but one of my friends suggested the coil was bad, and sure enough, replacing the coil fixed the issue. I wish I would have thought of that first.DT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zs-ondabrain Posted October 20, 2009 Share #2 Posted October 20, 2009 True, but look at all the GOOD things ya did for her in the process. Bet she runs like a top now, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trout_hound Posted October 22, 2009 Author Share #3 Posted October 22, 2009 She runs better, although it seems like there is still something lacking at high RPM's. It just doesn't seem to have the torque I'm used to. Maybe I was just spoiled by my last Z that had a hot cam and Webers... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
