On my '74 2.0, I can't get it to run right. It's gone through a restoration and put aside for 2 years. Now, back on it and it's almost done but[b] number 1 and 4 spark plugs are clean/wet and 2 and 3 are black, (after 10 seconds of running). What I've done so far: Rebuilt MPS, gapped points, static timing, set fuel pressure at around 27 lbs. Compession between 90 and 110. Plugs are sparking. All injectors spray (not sure of pattern). I believe plugs were new 2 years ago. They look new. It runs really rough, white smoke out exhaust and some mild popping. I though, maybe injector triggers but all are working from my, spray in the cup, test. Dizzy backwards? Any ideas to what's going on??
Thanks for any suggestions.  |
