After a few more days of trying to get the car running and not having any luck I have called in the pro's. They will be coming to pick it up after the long weekend and starting on getting it running.
I would of liked to kept working on it but now im at the point where I just want to drive it and start doing other things with it, like new paint and a few other goodies. Thanks to all that have given me pointers, I have learned alot in the past week about these cars and I am looking forward to learning more. Jason |

Who knows; you might have one of these screwing things up.  |

Who knows; you might have one of these screwing things up. WOW, that is some SERIOUS cam timing retardation! HOLY SH*T, how long did it take to get that way? I am really surprised by those elongated holes as you'd think it would always be creating a drag on the gear and wouldn't wear back and forth. AMAZING Now, to the current thread. Good for you, no sense letting pride get in the way of enjoying your car. Just try to learn from their knowledge. |
