gundee Posted October 23, 2023 Share #218 Posted October 23, 2023 Now on this last post of your you show a completely different coil and resistor ignition set up then what you posted above. Which one is your car. This last photo you posted does not show where you connected the red wire. This is important. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gundee Posted October 23, 2023 Share #220 Posted October 23, 2023 Enough with the compression tests already. Has nothing to do with his issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jalexquijano Posted October 23, 2023 Author Share #221 Posted October 23, 2023 Which wires you want to see? I even took my car for spin and everything went fine. As i told everyone the problem shows up when the car is sitting on traffic for many minutes. Fouling begins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jalexquijano Posted October 23, 2023 Author Share #223 Posted October 23, 2023 Do you want me to open the floats on the carbs? I also have a couple of float sync sight glasses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gundee Posted October 23, 2023 Share #226 Posted October 23, 2023 (edited) jalexquijano. Pay attention to stop your suffering. This is where the red wire goes. See attached. Do you even know the resistance of your coil? 1.5 or 3? Nothing good happens until the ignition is correct.

Here im posting better pics so you can review the wiring better and the model of the pertronix installed. The resistor was the one that came in the car.
