Good check here. I would add a resistance check from the T.sensor body to the body ground. Should read 0 ohms. That, with the first check would be a complete resistance check of the circuit.
 
Welcome to the forum. This is a great place to resolve AMC problems and learn from others. I've found it saved me a lot of headaches.

Scotty,
Pretty interesting stat. 74's were sold at the beginning of the first energy crunch. I remember people trading in V8's for six cylinder cars. V8's cars could be bought at fire sale prices. It would be interesting to see how that stat changed in later years.

Just a note about the seats... If you are planning on having seats recovered by Legendary and you need cores, these would be a great start as I live about 1 hour away from Legendary and for a fee could haul them to their shop. This would save you the time a trouble of packing and shipping your cores to Legendary. It shoud save you time, trouble and some money]]> Sun, 05 Feb 2012 05:38:08 +0000 http://theamcforum.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=36591&PID=335369#335369 For Sale : 71-74 AMX Javelin Doors http://theamcforum.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=36592&PID=335368#335368 Author: 71SC360

"I am just trying to line up a drag race with another 401 Jeeper is all... "

Ever heard of be careful for what you ask forLOL.

Looks like Ghimni has a challenge for you!

Ghimni that has to be intimidating for the other driver pulling up next to you on the strip. Nice machine what's the plans for the rig on the left with turbo? 10's?

Oh yeah Flint what happened to the Boobie grill on your rig? Are you just checking out the looks of the razor grill?

I realize your not following hood decals...that would be insane, and foolish on my part to think you do considering all you know and produce.  But i say the tomj post is moreless on and he does  get the difference between vac advance VS mech advance/static timing.  So many here get the wrong idea of using vac advance in order to increase loaded engine timing. It is an economy function.  Re base timing.. Are newbies more likely to follow the more is better rule and slam timing too  hi...yes.  So i agree that caution is in order when setting back from detonation.  But the premise of backing off from detonation is moreless true (in the NA world).  Yes there are cases when this is detrimental, like when someone has increased base and wasnt aware of locked/malfunctioning mech advance.  I think alot of hei conversions here are lauded as helping the car, when actually they are just yielding a better advance curve.  ]]> Sun, 05 Feb 2012 04:10:15 +0000 http://theamcforum.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=36468&PID=335364#335364
