OK folks, hopefully someone has some ideas.
My capri is a parts car for a festiva motor swap. But I can't get it to run right. Will idle and run to 6 grand without issue, as long as you wind it up slowly. If you stab it, she stumbles.
Looks like I have a water pump leak. It was pretty empty when I tried to start it on Saturday. It was idling at 3000. however it reved perfect from there. just wouldn't slow down. Once I figured out it was out of water, I shut it down. Added water, and the idle came down to just under 1000.
I inched it back to 3000 with the throttle, and stabed it, stumbled.
So its not just being at a higher RPM.
Is it a mix issue? (rich or lean?) smells rich.
Any ideas?
Thanks
