Re: What did you get done?

Worked like usual but not on the truck or blazer. This past week I was able to get the engine on the blazer back together and test out the timing gear. It still acted like it was off so I did the kleenex in the #1 cylinder and brought it up to TDC. I then checked to see how far off it was at the HEI. It was way off! So I pulled the distributor and reset it the way it needed to be. I went back to cranking and got much better timing but something either came loose or popped a fuse since it wouldn't crank or anything. I think I have got a bad connection at the starter. I'll have to check it out. Once it gets started and I fix the brake leak and bleed them it's off to get inspected.
