Hi, i adjusted the valves at operating temperature....I'm pretty sure those are right because it ran alright last year for awhile but then it kept idling worse and worse and finally this year it wont start. its gettin gas for sure. Someone suggested the coil....could that be whats causing it? all my wires are right, i just checked those earlier tonight. When i pulled number 1 plug wire off and cranked the engine over, the spark was yellow.....didn't seem too powerful...maybe that has somethin to do with it? I think i might have a coil lyin around somewhere i could toss on. Keep those ideas coming! Thanks guys.

a 30,000 mile UNMOLESTED original, now my daily driver! Original 6 cylinder with a rebuilt '66-'69 Saginaw 3-speed Overdrive. Synchro low! Otherwise, everything original down to the spare tire. Interior is like new. Needs paint, but absolutely zero rust.
