Did I miss anything?

Holy hell its been a long time. I had to take a break from the car for awhile. Started knocking last year so I thought the engine was gone. Let it sit since I had 2 other projects going on at the same time. Finally got my truck I'm restoring ready to go to the body shop so that freed up some time to work on the car. Just for shits and giggles I wanted to change the oil out to see if it'd even quiet down the knock.

It didn't.

What I realized is I had forgotten it still had that POS piggyback underdrive system on it and the crank pulley had loosened up, causing it to rattle against the crank and making it sound like a lower end knock. So basically it sat for a year because I needed to tighten 3 bolts up... [emoji35] [emoji35] [emoji35]

The bad (or good) thing is when I took it around the block afterwards it ran great. No more random misfire and pulled really hard. Misfire still comes back every now and then but I think I've narrowed it down to a couple bad injectors. That's what I get for buying used. Also forgot I had a 31 spline conversion kit that I found again after cleaning the garage out along with a SSBC big brake kit for the rear. So that's what I'll be tackling next.

Welcome back!!!!

Sometimes all it takes is stepping a way for a minute to only find out how minor it really was! Good to hear that's all it was.

Didn’t see you at any cars and coffee this year. Glad you got it figured out man.

Thanks everyone. Yeah I want to make a couple of C&C either with the truck or the Mustang but it just wasn't in the cards this year I guess. Next month it will be getting some new injectors and a tune along with that axle kit. I want to make sure she's ready to go next year so I can take her down the track a couple times for a base line before the major surgery begins.
