Here's the latest on Old Bessie from this week: Sparking noise from distributor.
We think the arcing noise could be the VCV that wasn't functioning right even before I broke it! Tomorrow the new one comes in and I will know for sure.
After struggling for an hour to find the line on the flywheel @BGarcia88FJ62 and I found another method to find TDC. We think we need to do the valve adjustment again but low and behold I do think I have that line and BB after all! After pulling the cover tonight I scrubbed the flywheel down and it showed up. See the pic. Now it is painted and ready to be started for valve adjustment #2.
Note to self.... when others say clean the flywheel before doing the valve adjustment I should listen!
