Best Ignition Timing set-up for early 70's Ford 302 truck?
2017年2月11日 · A chart of HP vs model year for the same engine would demonstrate the HP issue. The 302 engine HP spec fell like a rock during the early 70’s. I don’t have that chart in front of me, but as I recall the first year the 302 was produced was 1968, and that year had 225-250 HP. 250 required a 4B carb I think.

Replacing mechanical fuel pump for 1984 Ford F150
2018年7月2日 · Some of those 84 F150 trucks seem to have used two electrical fuel pumps, but apparently some configurations of the 302 (I presume those used a carb rather than fuel injection) used a conventional mechanical fuel pump too. In principle removing the mechanical fuel pump is pretty simple. It’s just bolted on to the side of the engine.

We have changed the relay, the ignition switch, flywheel, tried it with & without shims with the same results. When first installed, the starter works perfect, but after just one day it starts …
