This is driving me crazy.
Just fitted a new engine to a 79 project I'm working on.
But the sob wont start.
It just keeps popping through the carb.
I have set timing as per Lars's papers,
bought no1 cylinder to tdc on compression stroke lined up the dizzy but it still pops through the carb.
The engine is a newly rebuilt unit which i bought and did not rebuild.
Do you think that i may need to degree the cam first before doing timing.
Any ideas.
