Re: The 283 Rebuild Begins

Did you prime the oil system before dropping in the dizzy? I dont remember if you had mentioned this....

I always just dumped a splash of gas in the carb....make sure you're not staring down the carb when it turns over....(think of 4D's post with the mushroom cloud). It shouldnt take too long to get fuel flowing to the carb.

Ive seen different things on the cam break in. But usually the shortest time was 15 minutes. Good luck!!
