Thanks

I will reconfirm the timing, but sounds okay.

The injectors were rebuilt.

I dont see the smoke sticky?

The engine starts great without plugs when its warm (the engine is warm , and also, coincidentally, its warm outside).

Yes, i energise the plugs manually, much easier and better. Everything is manual here, even the solenoid on the pump I have to make new wiring harness because this one is more than horrible (literally no insulation on wires in the harness, only isolated by dirt and oxidation), im thinking of making more manual parts - the starter magnet etc, much cleaner setup imo.

I have the new filters in the trunk, ready also overflow tubes etc, all is going to be new.

Also, can the compression loss be caused by the never adjusted valves?

Are you ready for the compression numbers? From a few months ago - 20, 19, 16, 17, 17, 16. Nice Quite easy to spin the engine too. That happens when you do 450k on the original injectors probably.


My plan now is to mess with the fuel screw, idle and throttle position. But to do the valves first.
