Default Oil PSI

After my rebuild the OIL PSI did not read at all while cranking and took about a 30 seconds after startup to register. Should come right up after that.

If car starts, runs rough, and lacks power - it is ign timing or valve timing.

Car should warm up so ECM dosn't choke down the IAC before you do final timing adjustment. Just keep the car running via throttle till warmed up and then check timing with light on crank.

Default Smoke

Smoke out exhaust is ok at start. Lots of smoke in engine bay may need some attention as every thing should be sealed off. Any residue on exhaust pipe will really smoke a lot.


DOes car run by its self at idle?? Or do you need to keep on the throttle?

Have you tried to pay with he distrubutor by rotating to get faster idle? As you rotate slightly idle should smooth out - really need to a light on it thought to get it right.
