I did that... but when I put the timing cover back on I will be starting from scratch we will see what happens.... at this point I know I'm not doing something right just got to figure out what it is. I took a break from it yesterday or I was gonna light on fire and roast marshmallows and hot dogs... lolrocklaurence wrote:Sounds to me the Distributor is 180 out. Pull the Diz and rotate the rotor 180. Its easy to try and if it doesnt help-put it back.
I'm not far from you and can load my compressor and hook up for the spark plug. This weekend is shot but I believe I have availability next if it would help.Cheapthrills wrote:I just had these heads done. I wish I had an air compressor so I could do a leak down test. And the rings aren't seated yet

My sticker says 19 but then it doesn't want to start so I set to 15. I'm pretty sure my 1406 needs rebuilt. She idles well but if you give it throttle driving down the road she suddenly start chuffing (falls on it's face), if you put it in neutral and give it 1/4-1/2 throttle It clears up in a few seconds.letank wrote:Cheapthrills wrote:

Gutless, for high altitude, IIRC 16 degrees timing, I had a high altitude once and this is what was on the emission sticker... not too sure about Colorado emission rules.

I would start with a baseline measurement of fuel pressure, if pressure is within specs, then carb work, with fuel float level, it if it dying and you need to put in neutral to clear the "trouble" it can be either too much fuel or not enough when accelerating.Cheapthrills wrote:Ok so this will make me sound like a f***tard, but what's that?letank wrote:sounds like an enrichment circuitCheapthrills wrote:My sticker says 19 but then it doesn't want to start so I set to 15.
