problem getting 350 started
Oh yeah...I still had a high idle and the idle screw was all the way out. So I pushed the arm that throttle cable mounts to see if the idle would go lower. Something let loose and the idle dropped way down and I had to adjust the idle screw, something was bound up. Much better now- curse

problem getting 350 started
Unfortunately my job is sending me to Pittsburg for a week so I will have to pull the valve covers after next week. I wondered if I bent a valve or 2 or a push rod when I blew the mufflers apart.- curse

Hopefully this will help. I removed the fan so I could get closer without the air noise.- curse

You can rattle off more thoughts, I appreciate it. I could always write my issues on paper but posting them here might help others. I'll pull the fan off the motor and see if I can get a better vid without air noise.- curse

How about a vid? I'm to the point where i'm not asking for help diagnosing this but if anyone has an idea about the popping noise i'm all ears. To me, it sounds like a bad valve, possibly an exhaust valve. Stethoscope didn't narrow it down to a certain spot.- curse

Oh yeah. I shut it off and then decided to get a video of the popping, that's when it wouldn't start back up. I ran out of time to really look at it.- curse

Looks like i'll be pulling the timing gear cover. I verified top dead center on compression stroke and verified distributor #1 pointing at mark on the base and it hadn't moved. I have other timing issues.- curse

I got the fuel pump today and installed it. Yes the lower pressure worked and it actually ran and idled which is a first. But...it was popping out the carb and when I put a timing light on it the mark on the balancer was here (approximately).- curse

Neither have I but it seems like my current pump has some power! I've never even known someone having to use a regulator.- curse

Spectre performance 2519, it was only $24.10. I know it's a cheapy but I wanted to see if pressure actually is my problem. If so I planned on a quality regulator. Then I find out about lower pressure pumps which is what I would have done before the regulator.- curse

Of course. Sounds like I should see the pump by next Friday. Side note: The lower pressure did make the motor run at a normal idle finally but I didn't run it long due to the leak.- curse
