Okay, a while back I had the #2 exhaust rocker back off while breaking in the engine.
I fixed that, and rebuilt the carbs. Tonight I reset the valve gap and, ran it for the first time. It runs, but I heard a noise I did not like. There is a leak somewhere on the 1/2 head bank. Watch this video I made. it is me cranking the engine on my test stand. No fuel or spark, only cranking. The spark plugs are in to force compression. You can hear a "fffffffft, fffffffft, ffffffffft" sound, that I don't think is supposed to be there. Link to the video on Flickr Zach |

grab the ball and go forward and back with it...you will feel it go into gear at each end..forward and backward...
then you can push it up into the tranny, or pull it done...only when you are in the middle. You have three levels, up tight, down a 1/4 inch, and down 1/2 inch.. Those are the gates you feel on the shifter. Forward is a gear, back is a gear...middle is always neutral Does not matter what level the shifter is at, middle is neutral. I cant hear the sound, sorry. If I was closer I would come over... Rich |
