Today I drove my car for the first time after my rebuild. It ran great. Everything went well until I stopped and went into a store. When I went to restart it, it wouldn't start. The starter turned but wouldn't start. I sat in the parking lot for about 45 minutes to let the engine cool. During the 45 minutes, I received a million compliments and had a whole bunch of people check out the car. After the engine cooled- everything started just fine.
I am pretty sure that I (with the help of a call to dr. evil) figured out that I was running lean, engine got to hot and lost compression. I have to go out and play with the carb jets now. So bottom line of why I am posting this- even though I got stuck I had an awesome time. The car attracted a huge amount of attention. It was a huge hit. |
