.....Thank You Stovens, Jerry & Vara 4, I don't have an oil primer but I will get one because it's an auto not a stick. It's a roller cam so no break in & I will make sure that the carbs are primed. I guess I just squirt fuel down the carbs to do this??? The timing should be right on now so when I take the distributor out to prime it I'll mark it's location with a pencil line. This should be ok, shouldn't it??? The fuel cell, fuel pump & fuel filter are new so there's no gas in it now. So I won't use the old gas that's in my old tank. I'll buy new fuel. Thanks again! Bill

ps, just got off of the phone with Jeg's. I've got a Mopar Performance Oil Pump Primer on the way, $14 including shipping & handling.
