My first Video. Starting a cold engine (on a hot day).
http://youtu.be/dUeC5gLgjlE This seems to be the norm for me. After a few minutes it smooths out and runs nicely. Can we Dx anything from the video? Any thoughts? Thanks. [Edit] adding basic info. 76 stock D-jet. EGR and air injection are long gone. New vac. hoses, points, rotor, cap, plugs. Dwell and timing set. Valves adjusted. |

points, plugs, timing and valves.
Valves might be to tight. Sounds like one cylinder is fighting you on the first time you try to start it. rich |

points, plugs, timing and valves. Valves might be to tight. Sounds like one cylinder is fighting you on the first time you try to start it. rich Points, plugs & cap are new. Timing and dwell were done and redone. valves set before engine install and checked two weeks ago after a little bit of "around the block" driving. #2 gave me some trouble at first but a new injector helped that. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) It does sound like it's running on 2-3 cylinders at first. FYI: I don't touch the gas during the video. |
