It runs!

Postby Buzzard Wing » Thu Aug 10, 2006 10:00 pm

I ended up pulling off the distributor but not the gear housing so the clips (yep I found one) could open and put it back. I Figured if I didn't do it now I would be complaining about later. Thought why not just try it instead of playing with getting it at TDC with a voltmeter..... son of a gun if it didn't fire right off. :D :D :D :D

Runs good too, but it was just a quick test run cause the radiator isn't on yet. Good oil pressure, once it came up there was a nice stream across the garage, minor gasket adjustment and it is all better.

Still gotta do the front axle, tires and the usual details....

If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem.
