I think ford labeled theirs first.If wires are in same spots and terminals as before I dont think this would cause any noise. Maybe ones not in the cap good or on the plug good. try pulling one at a time at the plug and if one doesnt make a difference maybe its a bad terminal or wire. Are you...

I made shims from brass stock and shimmed up my shafts.Cheap easy solution.

Can you see the fuel pulse in the filter? Try feeding the cardb a little gas and then crank it. If it fires you know its a no fuel issue. Maybe a stuck float. stuck up when you turned it upside down. Not letting fuel in the bowl.

Sounds painful. Hope you get well quick.

good point^^^

I think my machinist bud told me that theres flat spots that are measurement pads around the outside. So a machinist could tell if they have been milled.

Jims restorations hmmm how you know they are bogus?

I,m old school. Indian Head for me.

You gotta remember ma installed 4.10 ratios in some trucks

because someone blew up the original while under warranty.

Never knew this.Been only gapping points my whole life.

Hell, just raise the pivot point of the pedal and extend the pedal arm. Longer arm ,more leverage, less effort to push it.

You will need an early 904 converter as the later maybe 68 up converters wont fit your crank register. Snouts too big. Iirc.

I,ve got 250 k so far on my s10 with conventional changed every 5k and have never cracked a valve cover, replaced a chain.Nothing but water pumps alternators and filters. Nothing oil related. 30 weight in winter 40 weight in summer,in Houston.

For once we agree.

Probably some crazy triple filtration system.

I have never worried about such a thing. If the motor isnt overheating and the level isnt dropping whats the problem?Damn things 40 years old.Why waste good antifreeze?Its not like a new car with an aluminum block, radiator and pump housing. Heater cores are notorious for storing crud.I myself...

Try a vented gas cap. The old unvented caps will build a small vacuum on the tank when the temp changes. A lot of people rip out the vent line or disconnect the vapor canister so theres no vacuum break. So the tank sucks the fuel out of the bowl cause theres no vacuum break.

Throwing a 4 barrel on it will likely make it run worse. It needs to be done as a package. First mod I would sugest is a good electronic ignition. Bolt ons wond do much good on a stock motor. A good valve job and head shave and a more modern cam profile is what it takes to wake these up.If you...

Some manufacturers use torque to yeild bolts that should be replaced everytime.

x2 Premium is higher octane which contrary to popular belief burns slower. This fights preignition.Pull a plug and see whats going on. If its sooty black its too rich. Float problem or stuck choke.

point the slot at the front driver intake bolt if restabbing while pistons at tdc. Scratch everything I said if its not an la motor. What do you have slant la or b, rb

It could be anywhere. All depends on where the intermediate gear is stabbed in the cam.If you have a 0 mark on your damper bump the motor over till the piston comes up and tries to blow your finger off the holethen try and get that mark on the 0 on your timing tab. Where ever the rotor points...

sounds like youre getting there

Dual springs are better or even prefferred. Its a safety issue. If one breaks your throttle will still return. I wouldnt run without two.Does the breather have a connection on the bottom for that hose?

Higher octane just burns slower to quell preignition in high compression motors. Doubt it will do anything in a 3.7 but empty your wallet faster.Look for a metal tag or stamped numbers on the carb to find the right kit.

How are the plug wires. ?Could a bad old wire be tricking your timing light. Try your light on another wire to see if its erratic. Check the timing cold and hot.Maybe its not timing at all and its leaning out when the choke pulls off.

hard on the beaver,hehehe

How about some pics of this little beast?.
