Well I just had it dropped off by the buyer for $225. They claim it ran before last summer when they stored it. I guess he did something with the dizzy, and timing. I dont think he put it back right, so since it doesnt run I will start there. Can you tell by looking at the picture below if the wires are hooked up right? The distributor is loose and I just lined it up to the marks that were already there. Still wont start. Has a full tank of gas, we tried pouring some gas down the carb. It pops here and there when your cranking it. I have not checked the cam and crank pulley for timing, doesnt sound like pistons are hitting valves. When you turn the key the timing belt moves freely, and under the valve cover looks really good. Not really sure where to go from there though. Has an oil leak up top, havent got a good look undernear. Does have some pretty serious rust issues but other than that its pretty clean. All the lights work, just need to get her running.
