Blykins...YOU are da man! :MECOOL:
Steve R...I have been over a few of the old pictures looking for clues... but you have been like Columbo. Thank you all so much. The intake is coming off and I will hopefully be up and running with a new problem in no time. **) Ernie, thanks for your patience with the picture sizing. -John |

Glad I could help. The reason I thought of that was because when I was building mine, one of my engine builder buddies came up to look, and that was the first thing he checked.....to make sure that I had put that plug in.
I'm glad you were smart enough to prime the oil pump and check everything out. That could have been an expensive mistake. |
Look what I found under the intake. :eek:

Again I really appreciate all the help everyone has given me. Thanks Blykins, Steve R, Rick and Ernie. :MECOOL: -John |
John,
Slap that intake back on then ship the engine to me. I'll make sure she's good and broken in for ya. After that, I'll ship her to Blykins for some destructive testing, then he'll ship it to Ernie out on Oahu for use as a marker and natural reef at his favorite dive spot near Three Tables. Damn, I wish I was back there. It was literally my brother's front yard :CRY: http://www.shorediver.com/Earth/Hawa...es/d001828.jpg Steve:3DSMILE: |
Well on priming the pressure went right to 60 psi...and at the rocker arms, lets just say...
"First thing you know old Jed's a millionaire..." I think I will start 'er up today and give thanks! -John |
John,
That sure helps make this a Happy Thanksgiving for you !:3DSMILE: |
Good news!!

Now is that a great T-Day event or what? :D
