Still won't run guys, need help!
Ok, in my previous thread here I was asking about fuel. Since then I have solved the fuel problem but it wouldn't start.
Plugs and points where SHOT, distributor worn so I replaced the distributor and tuned it up. Still won't start, couldn't get it to time. So, I installed a new timing chain, brought #1 up and everything lined up so I know thats correct and put it back together. Still won't start.
Starter is dragging so I had the starter rebuilt and bought a new battery. Still won't start.
I have spark from the coil, I have spark at every spark plug. I have good fuel pump pressure and the carb is working good, plenty of gas. It is not backfiring or coughing or spitting or anything, just turning over.
I am very open for suggestions.
Could it be possible that I may have the distributor off, say like a tooth or two? I know Chevy's and they are either in or 180 out and the engine lets you know. This one has me stumped.
I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
