Guys, I hate to say it, but this is about as exciting as watching paint dry. Back to Redline Rebuilds, please!!!
I REALLY wanted to see and hear it run. I was rooting for you guys big time. Oh well, maybe next time.
On the contrary, I find it quite interesting, and a welcome change for Davin to tackle.
possible slipped timing chain
Yeah, Timing chain or check firing order. maybe Dist. is one tooth off
Sure seems like a decent candidate for doing a little more to make the car drive on the road. Sure, the engine is likely really worn….. so why not a quick and dirty rebuild — rings, make sure valves are seating, not much more than that. That is just a very cool vehicle!
I really wanted to see it run so I could send this off to a buddy who has the same THING sitting in his driveway (I think his runs). Is the exhaust pipe clear/open from the manifold to the tailpipe (ie potato in the tailpipe)?
Not enough compression.
Not sure if you guys have seen NNKH but you might want to. He does quite a few of these and its really fun to watch. So how are things going in the shop these days? any updates on the projects on redline?? Cheers
Try putting about 1/2 Oz oil in each cylinder and about 2 oz down carb . Works for me ever time I encounter low compression.
Is a worn out camshaft a possibility?
Maybe plug wires are bad or distributor timing is off
Did you check the muffler, sometimes if it’s plugged up with animal debris ” may not start” just a thought…
