Hey all! I bought a 1985 Dodge D150 about a year ago as my very first vehicle. It would stall and felt real ‘heavy’ and after growing tired of paying mechanics that would attempt to fix the issue but would ultimately, not, I decided to take matters into my own hands. Despite never working on an engine before, I just finished up a complete overhaul on the 318. Heads went in for a prep and valve job, block was also ‘prepped’. (Not gonna lie, I have no clue what a ‘prep’ job entails.) It was also bored 0.030in. After getting the engine assembled and popping it back into the truck, it won’t start. It cranks, but after a few seconds of cranking, a mist of fuel/smoke would blow out of the carb. I’ve set the engine at TDC and plugged the wires in accordingly to get the timing correct but no luck. What could I be overlooking?
