    All good info. I have cleaned and checked the ground. You are right. Why will it work outside and not inside. I did bend the contact through the hole to make better contact. But will not work on inside the tank. I guess I will pull it apart and reclean and recheck everything. If I get it...

    It’s a 4 wire ecu. It was a kit added by another person. what is weird, is when I started it for the first time, like I said it ran fine, then after that, it would not run. It would start and shut off (bad BR) found I had forgotten to put the condenser under the bolt, and saw sparks. Replaced BR...

    Not a small block guy, but learning. I have been building my friends car (72 Ply Val) for about 3 years now. Had the 408 (360) in a long time ago, but did not fill in the small air holes under the exhaust ports. He bought a set of 915 heads a few years ago and we talked about changing heads...
