Re: [T3] '69 Fastback purchased


Looks OK cold... if it starts and stalls then the cold readings may be a bit
low but if it starts fine your OK.  530 is too high hot... Ill bet its still
running too rich at that reading... IF your engine is up to temp Id like to
see that down to 100 ohms or less.

NEW available?  Yea I go for that.  These can go intermittant when the get
old.
