I was having issues starting my 74 w/ newly built 2.0 w/ Djet and figured out my fuel pump went bad on me. I bought a newer 75-76 style (way cheaper) and it cranked right up. I broke in the cam, set the timing/idle and am installing my CVs so I can take this thing for a ride! It cranks right up and runs smooth...but it does seem to kick out a little black smoke when it is warm (white when first cranked, but it is cold out). Do I need to check the fuel pressure since I installed a new pump? Anything else to check? Could it be I just need to run this thing around the block for a bit? Thanks guys!
