new car i picked up lots of tech questions will follow

[TEAMJACOB]

Alright. Hopefully I can find a battery cause I don't want to shell for a new one. I have the oil change, coolant flush, and plug change handled. Any tips on priming the car and draining the gas. I've never down either

[TEAMJACOB]

Really wanting to get the car running early tommorrow

The fucker ain't running?

[YALE]

Google the distributor priming trick. The oil pump drive shaft is driven off the distributor/cam gearing. You could also squirt a small amount of oil into the cylinders and hand turn the rotating assembly to lube the cylinder walls. Go easy on that, though. The more you put in, the more it'll smoke when you fire it up.

Price?

Ok I read it. To me it read like you can do one or the other but I'm guessing I need to do both?

Do both.

Cool. Well hopefully its in the big ass pile of receipts.
Also, the car has afr heads and 24lb injectors but has a stock mass air. How is this thing running and how much better would it run with a bigger one?

Didn't '93 Cobras come with 24lb injectors from the factory ? Maybe it has a factory '93 Cobra mass air meter.

Just a thought.

Just pull the plugs and hose the bores in wd40, put the plugs back in, pull the coil cable and crank it over a few times. Fire it up see how it runs and then decide if you need to do anything else. You already want to put new plugs in it. Expect a mosquito machine though. Also maybe add some marvel mystery oil to the gas.

The cobra's mass air was not different - It was in the ECU programming
