Old Red Valiant
Well-Known Member
I am hoping someone can help. Went to take the Valiant out for a run a few weeks ago and it wouldn't start or even kick, then the battery died.
After charging, I tried again, no go. I sprayed some starting fluid, no go.
I replaced the coil , no go.
It had spark, getting gas.
I replaced the battery, it was over 5 years old anyway, no go.
For the halibut, I replaced the cab and rotor, no go.
The way its turning over, it doesn't sound right. I'm think maybe a timing chain.
Any suggestions???
This might be what makes me upgrade to a 273 or 318.
