More about a popping cracking 428cj
By Greg - 01/13/2002 2:14:06 PM; IP 24.252.182.5
As some may remember I had a problem with a '69 428 cj "R" that would pop and crack through the exhaust at part throttle or under any load, only wot was liveable. Today was a nice sunny day so I decided to take it out for some more testing. It popped and cracked right off the bat and the engine laid down like it was hitting a rev limiter just like before. On the way back to the garage it straightened out and ran great. I kept it out for over on hour and no problems at all. Could this be a cold engine problem? Bear in mind that this car never moved for 11 years. It has a new pertronix unit and new plugs/wires. Any ideas?
Thanks
Greg
