    It backfires when accelerating in gear, but not at the park position

    "afterfire" more clearly explains what's going on, so thanks for the hints. Probably running rich in gear and the waste spark is igniting whatever fuel is left on exhaust. The popping sound is pretty regular. Also, this car has no cat so that might add to the issue. I haven't really driven it...

    It backfires when accelerating in gear, but not at the park position

    Thanks, I'll check the crank sensor. But I'll point out that it runs fine in idle. If the crank sensor was really bad, would the car run at all? I don't have to be moving, just putting the car into gear with the brake on causes the pops/backfires. I'll check anyhow.

The car seems to run great at idle in park and I can hit the gas and there is no or little "pops." It only runs garbage and backfires once I put it into (any) gear and move...

    It backfires when accelerating in gear, but not at the park position

    I'm wondering if you ever figured out what was causing this. I have the same exact issue!! I suspect ignition but before I got the car, my buddy had swapped out the coil pack and ignition control, I think, so I don't want to buy more and try the same route. It could be he put used/wrong stuff...

    looking for a fuel rail for '85 hot air

    Hi All, I need a fuel rail for an 85 TType. The 86/87 fuel rail will not work. The 85 Fuel rail has a slight bend and impressions on it to leave room for the mouth of the turbo to fit on top of the intake manifold. I bought one from an 86 setup and was told it would work-- but it will not...
