After two weeks of a couple hours a day and some long weekends she finally runs.
I still have to track down this massive vacum leak, pull my plugs make sure nothing crazy is going on, re-lash the valves a couple of them wont shut up, and get my timing nailed down. The car amazingly Idles in fact I even drove to my barracks tonight.
OK the Questions???
Is the spout that I have to unplug to set my base timing the spout right off the distributor I thought it was but it when I unplug it the car just craps out (maybe thats the vacum leak though), I just had to time it by ear for now?
How many miles/engine hours before my break in oil change?
Will I be ok with the stock AFPR for now or should I take it easy till I get one
(I know how to read my plugs I'm just worried that the computer could make corrections and I would not catch it in time)?
Is it normal for the car to go to A on the NORMAL on the water temperature gauge before the thermostat really kicks in (I'm in the process of getting rid of the A/C and trying to stuff a massive radiator in there but wont be for a month or so)?
I sure I'll have more question and I will try to do some searches (not good at that). Sorry about the long post but didnt want to make a bunch of them.
