Re: can't figure out the problem. Reply #2 – November 08, 2004, 06:01:22 PM i don't know why my timing would be wrong, i didn't even mess with it at all, ever since i've replaced my valve covers, i've ended up with problems. Quote Selected

Re: can't figure out the problem. Reply #5 – November 09, 2004, 08:04:22 PM What do you mean by pvc/ air built in it? As far as the broken valve screw, i didn't take it out yet, because the drill i haven't prolly wouldn't be powerful enough, so i'd have to get a better one. Plus, it's not leaking from that part, there are no signs of oil around that part, the oil is leaking near the header, I think it was because when my buddy put the T-bolt on, it wasn't on all the way??? i have no idea why he didn't tighten it. Also, i triple checked the plug wires, and they are all on where they are supposed to be, good thing i drew a diagram so i would know where the wires go. Also, my friend was messing with some screw on the throttle, i think it is an adjuster of some sort, but im wondering if that might be the problem? I have no clue, But im going to try to find the problem tommorrow. Thanks for the posts guys! Quote Selected
