Update:
Got tbe #8 cylinder to
respond to removal of the plug wire. In case anyone's interested, I
had relocated the PCV to a manifold vacuum source shared by the #8 runner -
which killed the fuel signal.
Also swapped intakes,
adjusted valves, replaced points, cap, rotor, coil, plugs
Couldn't have said it better!

This is from an engine install instruction.
Install dist. Remove the #1 spark plug and plug the hole with your finger.
Slowly turn the engine over (clockwise) until pressure is felt. Remove your
finger and continue slowly turning the engine until you reach the timing mark
you want for
Well, thats one way to solve the problem :)

I found that the #1 cylinder was on the compression stroke because it would
make a loud rushing noise of air...kinda like an air hose. That would be
the compression stroke right. Thanks for the advice. I want to get this

Only 80 dollars??
Seems you got off cheap. My wife drives a 97 sebring conv. and the d!#ge dealer gets 75 dollars an hour to work on it. I said, "gee, what did I drive in here in, a Lamborgini"
As a matter of fact, when her head gasket developed an oil leak(WHAT?)
it cost upwards of $900
This pretty much sums it up for me. Wish I had wrote it but I think Ted

sounds like the #1 cyl was on the top of the exhaust stroke not the
compression stroke,that would make all your ingition wiring wrong.

It mounted passenger
side on my 67. I used a new crossmember during a tranny swap, and now I
don't know how I'm going to mount that hook, either. Guess I'll jave to
weld something together... Good luck.

A LIST of mechanic shops??? Must be nice. No offense to you pros out
there, but I can't find a single one that can be trusted. Like many of us,
this was one of the reasons I wanted a car that I could work on myself. I

I'm in another dilemma. Today I was trying to reinstall my e-brake cable on my 65 Malibu, and I cant figure out where one of the parts go. It is a big hook,( I have 3 of them, this is bigger than the two that hook into the body supports). In the shop manual, it doesn't help much but a

Larry,
Do you happen to know what the backspacing of those wheels is. Also, did you need to raise the back end any?
Much appreciated.

you can get them at any parts store but originally (at least on my 66 and
all the other Chevys I have worked on, only way I've seen it) it had a nut
welded to the control arm. I ended up breaking one of mine when I had my
front end apart and I ended up at first jerryrigging it to where I took
