Ok guys here is the deal. I have put a new intake and exhaust manifold, new carburator, new distributor with electric ignition, re-built fuel pump, new exhaust, new plugs, new wiring harness, and new others.
I have been trying to get it started and found out I had no spark. I then replaced the coil and now have good spark.
It started up and ran for about 40 seconds and then stalled. I have tapped the new carb a few times too. At first I thought I was not getting fuel. WRONG I pulled the fuel line and the pump is pumping??? I tryed a bit of starting fluid and nothing. Checked spark again and got good spark??
Any suggestions? This motor ran good before all this it just had a cracked exhaust manifold.. Its got me baffled. I have re checked the distributor timing to make sure I had it at top dead center of #1 and it is right. Also it started and ran and when it ran it sounded good...
HELP!~
