pinto expert needed

[trickydicky0_16]

Hi got a 2.0l pinto that would not run under load,

changed wires over on coil things improved greatly. On the spot it will rev and miss a little bit try and drive it and its popping spluttering when any amount of throttle is applied and throwing fuel back up the carb. drive it steady and its almost ok?

What we have done advanced and retarded the timing and tested compression 3@ 165psi 1@ 100 psi. indicating piston ring on no 2 cylinder. Fitted and removed electric fuel pump

New
carb repair kit
rotor
leads
dizzy cap
points
condensor
plugs
in line fuel filter
no back box fitted

Three people have looked at this and yet know fix, now the head has been taken off. Bore, piston ring and valves all look ok a little cokey but all looks ok
in fact looks hardly used big question is what to do now. we are a long way in with pinto, shortend sump,stainless exhaust manifold made, side panel hole cut for exhaust,




Cheers tricky
