Finally got the re-built engine buttoned up, and fired up!
Sounded great. Was a little hard to set the timing with the water spray from the water pump gasket, but it sounded great!
Seems we may have an issue with the OEM gasket from the high volume pump.
No problem, I'll put it on the punch list, and clean up. Why do I smell gas? We had a time getting it started - no fuel. Ran down the batteries getting it primed. Well it was pouring gas at the tank relay. Probably has original lines.
Can these lines be replaced without dropping the tanks? Even with the leaking I probably have 30 gallons in the tanks.
