Wits End With A 318
"Big Green" is back on the road, my friends!!! Our problem was a combination of two vacuum lines crossed, the fuel mixture was off a little bit, and my timing was off by a hair. (But how big of a difference it made!)
I had wrong information about the requirements for the timing. I'd set it correctly, according to the information I had, but with my new correct information we'd realized it was off by two degrees. I guess that's what we get for owning a truck previously owned by both A) The US Government and B) the Steven's County (Washington State) Fire Department.
Doing all the fine tuning and working out the little snippets. But by God, gentlemen, SHE'S ON THE ROAD!!! : )
I want to thank you all that gave me helpful information. I know it's hard to diagnose when you're not looking at the thing. I really do appreciate all the help.
Pictures to come soon, of the truck, the old engine and the BEAUTIFUL new 318 she's got. : )
*Drool* I LOVE me some Mopar.
I'm an A-Body girl myself (duh) but the old man likes the bigger girls. : P A 67 Valiant Signet 4-Door with a 225 S6 lowered to the ground is all the girl I need. : P **RIP VALERIE. 1967-2008** Beware of the drunk-driving-and-texting-no-shoe-wearing-stuck-up-snobby-***** driving the Mini Cooper. She got my Valerie. : ( Pictures of my ol' girl coming soon too.
And by the way, if anyone gets wind of a 67 Valiant for sale on my half of the country, please send that wind my way. I'd do anything to get another Valiant. I was very emotionally and physically wounded by the loss of my Valiant.
Thanks guys!
