Subject: Re: cam timing on stroker!
Ok now, ive trued andrew's suggestion and the ign
definately cuts as soon as you turn the keys off, so the heat has to be coming
from inside the combustion chamber. THat means that the plugs are
getting real hot, the compression is that high that it desiels (but its only
10.05:1),or some other reason that i havent thought of?
Ive now fitted the std L16 cam in there and yes
its a smoother idle and quieter than the lumpy cam, but the problem is still
there.
If no one else can offer any suggestions then im
going to try colder again plugs, this time BP8ES which is getting pretty cold,
but on the 7's the cruise at say 80kmh, constant throttle wasnt affected, and
the starting was simple so maybe the 8's might do it.
Temperature of the water is all good, nicely warm
and far from hot!
Thanks all, sorry for the essay's
lately

Try using a timing light and then turn it off and see
if its still sparking during run on.

Sorry to bombard you with stroker motors
but.............. Im
still having timing problems with it. THe timing is now on 10
degrees BTDC and the car runs fine, the cam works well as a 30/70 cam
should, but when i come to turn it of, she refuses to die quietly.
If i dont stall it then it will virtually run for
ever. Now ive swapped
the plugs from BP6ES's to BP7ES and that has made it a little smooter
through out the rev range but it hasnt altered the running on
problem. Now im tempted to use BP8ES's to see what that will do
coz the 7's didnt affet the driveablilty of it, so the 8's may be the
way to go. Im after
any one with a warm/stroker L20 that has run into this sort of problem,
any idea's?? Every thing else on the motor is either new (pistons
rings etc etc) or recon'ed (head etc etc) Something has got to be keeping the spark going
but im just unsure as to what! any one please help
me! Chris
