Re: FINALLY!!!



I didnt prime the oil system That would have solved my problem, try priming yours. With no or litle oil the valve timing is all over the place form cylinder to cylinder. Check all variables such as timing chain stretch. Pull dist cap make it or observe rotor. turn crank and see how far crank rotates before dist moves. Bushing under dist can wear also. Check cap for crcks or try another rotor also. Bent pushrods pull covers and see if all valves are moving the same. Rinds maybe stuck. Doing a 340 now that sat so long cylinders rusted, rings rusted to walls also and lost there tension. Valve springs maybe weak also.
