  1. The other possibility is the new plug wire is leaking and when it is in the plug well it is arcing over to the head instead of sparking the plug. I have never heard of it with a new wire though. Is there any whitish discoloration anywhere on the wire to evidence arcing?

  2. I think he is missing fuel. So the plug would still be sparking away but no detonation. That's why I asked if the valve was opening, because that is about the only way to get a no fuel condition to a single cylinder on a tbi, a stuck closed valve.

     

    Especially considering that the compression is good so we know that the exhaust valve is closing completely.

     

    Does the plug look like it is lean?

  3. I found that when I hit something with outer wings that it transferred the energy to the point where the bottom edge of the lower panel met the center section and bent the center section there. For reference my center is 1/4" plate and the outer is 1/8". I have a peice of square tube welded down low on the 1/4" plate spanning the gap for lateral support. I should have made sure that the lower panel edge and the square tube were in the same spot because of that energy transfer. Instead, my tube is about 3 to 4 inches lower.

    I really like this one. If I could only find it a little bigger and not shipped from China.

     

    At one point I checked with Fluerys to see if he would make a NPORA tire cover, but it was a no go. Logistics of sourcing the blank tire cover in Canada made the end product too expensive, if I remember correctly.

     

    I have seen the same tire cover you have on Amazon for around $45. Might be an option for others.

  5. Over the weekend I spent about 7 hours in the Pathy, and determined that the seat is horrible. Makes sense, it is 25 years old with 256000 on it.

     

    I believe I have two options, either new springs and padding for the seat, a rebuild, or new seats. I would like new seats, maybe with adjustable lumbar. Does anyone know if the seats out of something else will fit? Xterra, maybe, or really anything. Mustang seats are nice. Any ideas?
