I have had the timing set correctly on the van, and the co mixture is set right also. However the engine sounds like it is "pinging", under load. The clutch feels a little stiff after it gets good and hot. Maybe the clutch is not fully engaging and causing the loss of power when the engine gets hot? Any ideas on the clutch problem. Sometimes the clutch feels like it is not releasing...Hmmmm??>?? |
