I may have screwed up ....more than once
I forgot the plug behind the dizzy on an LA. Had to put it in while motor was in the car
my ex use to call me "Mr Detail" ~
.. It's 1990 or so, my first Dart... so I'm out in the garage getting ready to fire my new small block for the first time, I checked then rechecked everything ~ timing set, fuel in, battery charged, electric pump working and pressure is good, carb squirts fuel, throttle not binding or sticking, proper break-in oil in and double checked for correct level, radiator filled, fan on and running in front of the car, all torques checked and rechecked, extinguisher ready... blah blah blah, let's do this! Ignition on, turn the key, three cranks on the starter and she's alive ~ NAILIED IT! RPM good, fuel pressure still good.. open headers ~ damn that's loud... wait, WTF is that!?? Are those oil droplets on the windshield!?? :wtf::BangHead::BangHead::BangHead: ~ kill it NOW.......... :BangHead::BangHead::BangHead:
:wtf::wtf::wtf::wtf: hold up, there is oil dripping from the ceiling directly above the engine bay....
..."Mr Detail" missed the oil pressure hole behind the distributor.. hey, the line was run TO it and the fitting was in there.. :lol: 'nuff said.
