From Sputterin' to idlein'

Hey guys,
I just got done installing my newly rebuilt(bought) Motorcraft 2100 along with the HEI and this thing is actually idling. Plus, it starts with just a blip of the key. What a difference

I am so stoked this actually helped. I was a bit concerned when the HEI didn't make enough of a difference, but when you have an old, totally untuned and in need of a rebuild carb, that really affects things as well. I haven't had it on the road yet, wedding plans, but I plan to get it out tomorrow night after work. I am totally impressed with it already.

If you are thinking about an HEI and carb swap, I say go for it. I thought I was in over my head, but with the help of you fellow Jeeper's, I actually have High5 running good.

Thanks for all the advice when I needed it. I will definitely keep coming back to this forum and posting when I can help others.

Thanks again,

High5

 

Way to go. Hei is definately the best improvement for the money. Adiose to the old unreliable points and welcome to reliability. glad to hear it. Enjoy

 

Are you running a manual or automatic choke? I'm running a manual and it's a little finicky.

 

I'm running an automatic choke. I'm still working the bugs out, timing, but it is hands down better so far. I am having a bit of trouble getting the timing right. Today it ran great around town, much better throttle response and no hesitation accelerating. I have tried the timing light, but the ear works better so far.
Good luck,

High5
