Hello everybody,
i have a Problem with my 1978 Dodge Magnum. She has the 400 CUI V8 Engine and Chryslers "electronic lean burn" spark Computer (new of stock replacement).
(and factory rebuid original 4bbl ThermoQuad installed)
It seems that the ignition Timing is not correct, because the car has very low Power and a to high fuel consumption.
It even stumble in IDLE.
But i dont find any values for the correct Timing in my carshop Manual.
On engine or Frame i dont find any "Emission Control" Sticker with Information.
Did anybody can tell me the Basic ignition Timing for my engine?
And maybe anybody can tell me something about how powerful this engine should be normaly?
She only comes to 11 mpg on a 60 miles an hour Highway ride. Are i am right that this is to mouch?
Sorry for my bad english.
Regards from Germany
