Subject: Re: Reinstalled distributer and engine won't start by Dale1990 on 2010/12/29 1:47:56 I hooked all of the wires back up and I'm sure it matches the pic above this time. The car still won't start or run w/o holding the gas. When it does start it runs pretty much the same as before - missing, rough and won't idle. After 20ish seconds of running, some of the header pipes are cool to the touch (5 & 7 especially) and others hot enough to sizzle when touched. Even though I haven't been able to get a timing light on it to bring it to 6*, it should still start, right? It looks "close" to where it was as best as I can eyeball it. I originally took everything apart to put in new valve springs/seals. Does this sound like I maybe messed up when setting the lifter preload? Thanks! |
