I absolutely agree with you. I was just doing some basic checkup stuff (checking compression, plugs, etc...) 2cyl with 130, 3cyl with 120, and one with 85 frown and each spark plug was gapped out. So I all I did was reset the gap, and HOLY COW. It purred like a kitten. My 1-ton 454 takes about 5 turnovers before it starts. I was just playing around with the C-60 and he started consistantly only taking two turn overs. I was considering swapping it out, but if I can learn to shift it right I'll probably have the motor rebuilt and keep it as is.

I tried shifting again last night and still could not figure it out. It sounds like the 2-speed is switching (vac) but I think I am still doing it wrong. frown

1st gear, 2nd gear, 3rd gear, 4th gear (all in Lo), then pull out for Hi, and shift to 3rd, and 4th. Is that how it's supposed to work? I've done some searching but nothing clearcut is coming up.
