My Story; We are the third owner of #1325 but the car only had 1440 miles on it when we got it. It was sold new by Southern Automotive when they were a Superformance Dealer. It never really had been taken care of or sorted out. We could not tune the carbs at all and finally replaced them. They were rebuilds dated 1988 and 1990. The
oil pan was on finger tight and the car used
oil ( a quart every 100 miles). The PVC valve was not baffled in the valve cover and sucking
oil, fixed that, too. Still using oil. Compression check showed two cylinders with only 115 psi and they are the cylinders with carbon fouled plugs. The rest of the cylinders have 130 to 145 psi. The weather turned colder and I have not been able to drive the car much lately but I hope that we will not have to pull the motor to get at those two cylinders. I am thinking rings ??? What is your best guess and is there anything we should be doing ?
