  1. Ok, quick followup - the car's running great, except for a minor problem.... and this doesn't seem to be allowing me to post a new thread, so here's the deal. The car has developed a bit of a shimmy (wheel jerks back and forth) at around 60 mph or so.... is this caused by the axle nuts? Or struts?
  2. Do the timing marks look like dimples? Or are they supposed to be paint? Had it half-rump roast running yesterday, but wouldn't idle, still trying to get it to time,but you're right, that limited disty motion is a SEVERE PITA.
  3. Anyone got tips on this? The dist. was pulled to change cap and rotor (I got big hands, so pushing the little clips back on proved to be too difficult with the dist installed,) Problem is, I screwed up, pulled the wires and apparently got it out of time. I've seen mention of 'timing' marks on the crankshaft pulley. How do I use these to find position one on the dist cap (I know the direction of rotation is counter clockwise, and I know the firing order is 1-3-2-4) So, bascially, what I need to know is: 1 - How to get it close enough in time to start 2 - How to find the cylinder 1 pin on the cap
