Re: SoCal checkin' in
HEI or Points? Use the timing light to find which cylinder is not firing, then swap a wire to see if that changes anything.

How are the plugs? Right gap, fouled out, still sounds like timing to me. |
Re: SoCal checkin' in

Re: SoCal checkin' in
Its been a while since i contacted him....but i agree its your timing..move your dizzy around ...what exactly is it doing?have you checked compression? I had the same problem with my 350..timing was dead on but i had a cracked valve...motor had a cam and other goodies that it ran but had no power...

Re: SoCal checkin' in
I'm having similar troubles with mine. About two months or so ago I replaced the fuel pump, carb (Edelbrock 1405), fuel filter and air cleaner, plugs, wires, cap/rotor. Ran solid after up until about a week ago. Rough idle when in drive/reverse (running right around 650 rpm in drive). Sluggish acceleration but once going it runs strong.
I replaced the fuel filter but no change. Pulled the idle screws and blew everything out but I'm thinking I'm going to have to pull the carb apart and clean it completely out. I can't find any vacuum leaks. |

Thats a timing issue. Could be your vacuum advance. I had to go with an adjustable vacuum advance to correct my timing issues. |
Re: SoCal checkin' in
It's possible that either the cam and crank gears are not lined up, dot to dot or the distributor gear is off the cam gear by a tooth. Just a thought(s)

Re: SoCal checkin' in
Can any of you guys recommend a good engine machine shop in the North Orange County area? I'm in Old Towne Orange. Pulling my engine today and plan to rebuild within the next few weeks. I have my own machine shop but my mill is too small or I would do it myself.

Andy sorry to see some knuckleheads messed with your truck.
Randy were here, and yes it has been quiet up in here. When is the Pomona Swapmeet? If its this Sunday I cant make it. The San Diego cruise showed me that I need to change and fix a few things on my truck. So I might be a bit cruise shy for now. LOL |
Re: SoCal checkin' in

Re : Baker'sPatch , Ca.
I don't but I still like Buck Owens a great deal ! :metal: .
I rather like much of Bakersfield too , remember the short lived TV Show Bakerield P.D. ? . |

We call it SoCal Checking in, but if you start at the first page, you will see members from all over Cali and other states. This is how we all met. The members in Fresno, A****er, Sactown, AZ, Utah, Nevada, etc, we met here. Im sure there are a few near you. Search this post because everyone does not check in all the time. Even though your in Bakersfield, your part of SoCal. |
