Hey guys. Picked up the engine last week.
Chazo and I did the conversion yesterday. Only took 16 hours :p and it managed to start straight away but it was already midnight so we called it quits. We came back to it thisarvo with better light to see the results.
So after starting it last night and it sounding very lumpy we went and bought a base timing light and got straight into that, it worked in the sense that it was lined up to specifications but the engine idle was still lumpy.
Its Also running very rich, black smoke from the exhaust and even some sprays of oil straight out of it.
Decided to take it for a short drive and it ran rich the whole time. Then when it got back to idle it just stopped firing and wouldnt start again. The engine is trying to turn over but seems like there is just no fuel there.
Put some more fuel in it - no results.
Tried fiddling with the dizzy, thought it could have shifted on the drive and changed the timing - no results
Last thought was it could have just been flooded from revving the shit out of it... but it started pissing down and we had to call it quits again.
Thinking there might be a problem with the injectors or something around there as the old engine ran rich too. but we really aren't sure at this stage.
Took a bunch of photos. Please excuse the ghetto worksite :p
