great vid - i been looking for this type of info for awhile on youtube. thanks - i gotta this to my 79 vette, seems to be running too rich, i wanna burn the fuel off quicker.
help!!! i changed my intake monifold but i forgot to mark my distributor what the best way i can get it in right the first couple times? i have the wires on the distributor cap still.. if that helps..
2 issues here. I think it would be a lot easier to mark the intake manifold in relation to the rotor position,therefore no need for a timing light wouldn't you agree?? and 2nd I would never stick a screwdriver into the spartkplug hole you run the risk of destroying the cylinder wall or damaging the piston.use a straw it's much safer..Good Vid Though :):):)
@MORPHEUSou812 Those are two very valid points. We would have marked it prior to pulling it out, but the timing was already off in the first place. And as for the screw driver, we probably should have used something that wasn't metal, but the way in which he was holding it, the piston would force it out of his hand, and if anything, putting a scratch in the piston. But yea, the only thing we really had at the time was a screw driver lol.
@councilman1993 The line lines up with the arm that im holding in 4:14 , the pressure during the compression stroke is high enough to blow your finger off, then after that just turn is over with a breaker bar and bring it all the way to the top
at 4:20 you say line up our line with this here. What were you pointing to in this here, the camera didnt pick up what you were pointing at. I can see the line on the distributor, but now what you were pointing at.

yes. the line with what.
And how close does the cylinder need to be to the very top dead center.
The crank can turn 1 /16 rev and the piston can hardly move.
Could you really feel pressure blowing you finger off?
