Re: Time for a new HEI?

I started my truck for the first time in a couple months recently, and it backfired a couple times. I let it idle for about 15-20 seconds and then goosed it and it did it again. Upon checking it out, I found a loose wire at the bulkhead connector for the HEI. I replaced the male Packard terminal and all is well again. Never had that happen from a loose power wire before.
