Cheers guys,

my 3.5 v8 (with carbs) has been back firing alot on start up, and not just little pop's, sometimes it sounds like a shotgun going off. everytime it does this the performance seems to change too, as in sometimes i cant put my foot down in 3rd and 4th. any helpful input would be appreciated guys

ok that clears that up. cheers :)

yeah that sounds about right, so whats the deal with this cos mine is not connected.

ok guys, 3.5 v8 has 2 sender units on the engine, the water temp sender sticks out of the front of the block. there's a 2nd one on the top, is it an oil temp/pressure sender or something else. any help appreciated guys
