Hello. Do anyone have some idea why my yblock wont fire. I have newly rebuild the engine, but it wont fire. I have ligned the distrubator upp, and all the wires are in the corectly firing order. But my carburator is leaking. The one off the gasket off the bottom og the carburator are leaking. But anyway, i belive that the fuel who comes into the sylinder would be enough to make it fire. I have checked that the spark plugg haves spark. I am out off ideas at this point. Also, i have cranked the engine a couple time, but cant se any oiling at the rockers. Do the engine need a little more RPM before the pressure would push the oil upp to the rockers ? I am shure i have mounted the rockers the right way. The oiling outlet tube is at the right hand off me when i am looking stright down at the rockers. This is a 6V electrical system ins this car. Please advice, cant wait to rev upp that Yblock Smile)
