Post subject: | update on 63 valiant ( good news!) |
Ok, i got the valiant running! It turns out the distributor was set incorrectly, the rotor was pointing towards the fenderwell and i repositioned it and it fired up! i took off the valve cover and it was really sludged up. I went and got a gasket, and adjusted the valves correctly and that got rid of the idle problem, and it also fixed a miss in the engine. it runs really smooth and i can't wait to take it up and down the street tommorrow and see how the transmission shifts etc. Thanks for all your support and help. I am looking to add a little power to it so i might add a super six later on down the road. ksjo923@hotmail.com |
