Need help on a 245T 200 1983

posted by  someone claiming to be Angel on  Sat Dec 9 18:23 CST 2000 [RELATED]

Hello everybody!

Yes! I bought the car ('83 245T). Yes Paul, its got a some rust spots. Now, I need some help. It seems to idle ok. Accelerates slowly until it reaches about 2500 rpm, then it seems like the engine has no more power, the engine running a little hot also. Any hints on what could be wrong? So far: wireharness needs work, major tune-up, some grounds need to be reattached.

What would be a healthy compression reading for this engine (B21FT). I haven't check yet, but I would like to know. Thank you guys for any reply.
