May 13, 2002. Another long day. I am the mechanic that "always" installs the distributor 180 out. So, I purposely installed it 180 out and it was right on the #1 cylinder! The 327 doesn't really want to run right though. I'm pretty sure the carb is gummed up, even though it worked fine before the refresh. I have the valves close to set, I got all the racketty racketty out of them. I will go back through once I get it to idle. The highlight of my day was letting my junkyard radiator fall over and poked a big hole in one of the tubes... grrr. I pulled it out and put in the nastier (but leak free) 2 core radiator.
Another quality post. Real Trucks Rattle HELP! The Paranoids are after me!
