    93 wht/wht #1631

    Re: 93 wht/wht #1631 One other thing is the #1 cylinder leaks some oil and will grow crap on the spark plug. I'd pull it periodically and clean it (at least it is one of the "easy" ones to access), and swap in a new plug every couple of times. The compression was good so I'm assuming it is...

    93 wht/wht #1631

    Re: 93 wht/wht #1631 Jordan, the tranny was always kind of funky and was almost gone when I sold it. I basically know the same thing about the engine as you. It was supposedly a McCoy build, had problems and was worked on by a couple of shops in Washington.

    93 wht/wht #1631

    Re: 93 wht/wht #1631 Glad it found a good home. It had to travel a little farther than when I bought it from Turbotoyz. It was a clean Ty when I got it and I tried to fix all of the little things while I had it (and spent $4k in the process). Good luck and have fun with it.

    Canada 93 Ty #1050 $7550

    Re: 93 Ty #1050 $7550 :barf: This is in my neck of the woods. It's been for sale for awhile. At least they didn't paint the jambs or engine compartment with the "custom color". Too much money for the condition it's in, especially if you tried to replace all of the cladding. If the price lowers...

    chasing my tail in a poor running motor. help.

    Re: chasing my tail in a poor running motor. help. You mentioned when you did the tune up there were 6 different brands of plugs with 6 different gaps. Considering somebody did that it's anybody's guess what else is screwed up. I wouldn't assume you have just one problem left. Hopefully so, but...
