No Title
Found the tag on the motor, I was at work when I posted this!
1-3-7-2-6-5-4-8 is what is on the engine tag, however it will barely run in this configuration. It runs smooth as butter on the old 302 firing order of 1-5-4-2-6-3-7-8. It was wired 1-3-7 as the tag says, and the number 4 plug wire was unhooked laying in the bilge. Hooked it up and tried to run it on a bucket, but it would barely run. Tried the old 1-5-4 and she fired instantly and purred like a kitten. Either someone has replaced the original motor with a 302, or someone has put a 302 cam in it.
It has brand new wires on it, think the owner took them all off and tried to wire it to the engine tag and couldn't get it to run right. Thus up for sale it went. It ran decent with a plug wire off last weekend, just minor shake at idle...no pop, backfire, or anything like that. Had lots of power considering it was running on 7 holes. Think I might have got a steal on a sweet boat!
