Hi all, I've been a member of fabo for a while because I have a '69 barracuda, but I just bought a '64 fury, so that brings me here too. I need help. My fury has a stock 1978 440 out of motor home, except for the Holley street avenger 670cfm carb. It ran great when I bought it, but of course after driving it once for 15mins, I parked it for 20mins, came out and it started running rough as if its missing. I changed plugs, converted to mopar electronic ignition, new coil, checked wires, changed fuel filter,and just did a compression test cause its no better. Compression results are as follows:drivers side 148, 144, 149, 141. Pass side 126, 138, 130, 130. Does that seem acceptable? I know it doesn't look good but do you think it's bad enough to cause it to run really rough? The last thing I just did was put the fuel Lin into a water bottle and crank the engine to see how much was coming out and after about a 10 sec count there was only 3/4 cup of gas at the most. Doesn't that seem too little? Thanks for any input, sorry for rambling, but I'm getting really frustrated........Bryan
