So I re checked cam timing and ignition timing. Both are spot on. Any other ideas? Getting pretty desperate here. If not fixed by this week its gonna be outta here

Whether it was ignition timing or a bad distributor, wouldn't it be causing a multiple miss?

Ok so long story short, A few weeks ago I picked up an 86 Corolla SR5 Automatic. Completely stock with a rebuilt engine. Drove it 3 hours home with no issues. Next day drove it a few miles here and there, drove phenomenally. Next day, it was -30 degrees here in Milwaukee. Previous owner put too much...

Hopefully it's just the axle bearings and I didn't do some damage to the diff. I'll find out next weekend when I rip it apart again. I dunno why I...

Looks great. What do you think of the GSP suspension? Unfortunately I haven't been able to test it out yet. The diff started making noise on the first drive after the install, so I drove it carefully home from a buddys house less than a mile away. Most likely this weekend I'll figure that out and g...

Hey all, It's been so long since I was on here last that I forgot my original user name, so I'm starting fresh. Trying to become a more active member of the forums this time around, especially now that I have some knowledge about these cars compared to last time. So I decided to re-introduce myself ...

Make sure the battery is good! I just put a new motor in my car and the battery was shot, only pumping out 6v. Enough to get some fuel pressure but not enough to start it.
