Other than that, I have been tinkering with the temp sender(s) http://forums.maxperformanceinc.com/...=632070&page=2 and a sticky fuel gauge float that was reading 1/4 when it was full. Until I took it for a ride and kept slamming the brakes, which seemed to break it free. I also have a new D992 starter solenoid coming this week since the original doesn't like to start when the car is hot. It never ends. :-) |
Steve...I will give you a little hint on the started solenoid.. Go to NAPA and buy a $39.99 starter solenoid for a 1971 TA. The large spring, appriximately 2" in diameter, use it with your original one. That is what is causing your starting problems with heat. The original one has heated up and cooled so many times it has lost its "spring".. If you just install a new spring, and I believe the NAPA ones are approx 1/2" longer, your heating start issues will disappear and you will be able to keep your original solenoid. This is what the heat problem has always been. 9 out of 10 times it is just the spring... Try it, you will be suprised. Recall I was right about your temp sender..... I have been there done that on the hot start solenoid.. Didn;t want to go without my original solenoid and figured it was the large spring... hope this helps you..
