  1. I think the fingerprint is only the first time
  2. If this helps anybody it’s not consistent sporadic throw a couple of puffs I then it goes away for a few seconds maybe 10 when it comes back again on and off it’s not steady also mentioned a buddy of mine down there and California recommended that to me a long time ago about advancing the pump slightly that also works that was his first suggestion when I mentioned the issue norm Taunton… some of you know him
  3. Well thanks for that I’ve never been to Hawaii myself yeah same here with 401k is for travel and home repairs every day expenses are SS and wife’s paycheck
  4. I’m gonna try to put it together tomorrow and start it and see what happens thanks for your input everyone
  5. I drove at home when i bought it 30 years ago. That’s the only time it’s ever seen the road. I started every weekend and let it run for about 10 minutes. That’s about the biggest workout it gets.
  6. Wow, I’d like to go there myself. Maybe I’ll put it on my bucket list.
  7. That was excellent thanks
  8. Yes, I thought of that but like a car back in the day with a.(NORMAL)distributor would need adjustment occasionally
  9. Thanks for that. I did mention. I found one exhaust valve too tight most everything else was pretty close. I’m hoping maybe that will cure my issue. I also thought of that. I don’t think it’s ever been changed. It sure doesn’t look like it.
  10. I would’ve liked to be there when they dropped it off Thanks for that…. Bob
  11. That’s quite a rig you got there Bubba I am like Joey. I really don’t like to drive anywhere, but it would be fun just to go to our local gambling casino and have breakfast with it. 2 miles down the road sorry I can’t help you with much of your information. Good luck with it… bob
  12. have a swinging time fellas and best wishes,,,bob
  13. my god,,,i dont think even a mask would hide that,,,,hands look like a chick ..thats about it!!!!!!!!!
  14. well for one thing again the all mighty main street media is scaring the shit out of everyone insteada inspiring everyone and boosting thier spirits,,,,,and where the hell were they when they were closing tons of factories over here??????ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo thats right nobody cared
  15. OK, thanks for that Definitely need two people since timing marker is on the flywheel.
  16. You know, I’m not even sure I believe it’s American I’ll have to let you know a little later.
  17. Look at the good side we could’ve had that drag queen still out there doing photo shoots around the globe shaking hands with the enemy
  18. I knew you’d like that one Happy Saturday
  19. Accessive smoking was the original problem. Norm Taunton suggested I advance the timing a bit, and that will probably cure it He told me that quite a while ago it sounded pretty legitimate to me. But velvet adjustment was also a suggested to me about 45 years ago by an older hand in LA and it worked on the 180 I had at the time I did find one valve that was too tight after second go around originally thought two cylinders off, but I was not going in the proper sequence kind of a long story now I’m just rambling but I did find one valve tight number four cylinder exhaust maybe that’s all it is i’m hoping this issue doesn’t turn into a huge trial and error caper .. bob
  20. OK, thanks for that input. I have gone through the manual a little bit and it’s not very clear on anything or at least I’m not reading it right kind of confusing so far and I don’t wanna clean up valve covers and put them back on until I’ve got this right it’s a lot easier to find compression stroke without them on
  21. strange havent heard from him today,,,probably real busy
  22. oooooooooooooooooooooo by the way babba,,,welcome back
  23. oh come on now,,,,,you gotta good shot at going alot further
