    Water in oil after doing timing chain .. stumped

    Alright, a bit of a weird one. I did the timing chain on the 273 in my '65 Valiant. This wasn't my first timing chain, I've done numerous and never had any problems. After reassembly, I fired it up, and everything was good. I let it warm up, and noticed some oil coming out the breather/oil fill...

    360 will not start, any suggestions?

    The 360 in my Barracuda just won't start, no matter what I do. The starter will turn with the key, but it will not fire. I swapped the intake manifold from an Edelbrock LD4B to an Edelbrock Performer, because the LD4B cracked near the carb. It wouldn't start before I changed it, but I thought...

    Adjusted Valves, now it smokes

    The engine is a 318 Poly, unsure of year. I was having problems with the engine stalling after start, and was advised to adjust the valves. I did so using a chart someone had provided, and everything went great, but it didn't stop the stalling problem. I later found someone had previously...

    318 Poly idling question

    65 Power Wagon, unknown year of 318 Poly, but guessing around 65. New fuel pump, manual choke, still has points. Ran great with no problems up until a few days ago. Close the choke a bit, fire it up, idles good and strong for about 5 minutes, then stalls. Try to start it again, the starter...

    Questions about timing a 318

    Ok guys, I've never been the greatest at timing an engine. I can figure out the basics but I always seem to just kind of get it. Ok so here's what I have so far, tell me if its correct or if I have the steps in the wrong order. I know its just a simple thing but it still gets me because I...

    Getting a backfire

    Hey, started the Dart the other day from not having started it in a few months or so. Had a pretty good backfire happening, never had this happen before. Drove it down the driveway, backfire all the way, then parked it again. Would this be a timing issue? Or because I don't have exhaust on it...
