We just installed our rebuilt moter in the car and can't get it to start. It was built by a respected engine builder and before we go back to ask him for help, was wondering if anyone had any advice.
We got good spark at the plugs...
Engine turns over well...
Float level is OK & looks like it's pumping fuel...
We think the timing is close...
The best we are able to get is a backfire thru the Carb & Exhaust...
We also have a secondary probem where for some reason the new clutch is not grabbing the resurfaced flywheel enough to me to spin the flywheel, when in gear with one rear wheel jacked up. One we get it started, we'll address that issue.
