here i go again screwing stuff up well tonight i was the weber off because i never loctite the studs and screws and i dropped the carburetor on the stud when puttin back on

and i had to yank it off kinda which upset me then i put it back together and started it now here is whats wrong my whole truck is shaking and when i rev it now sputters in between and its running like crap

and here comes the bad part of it i ended up with a washer missing to my carb and i think it fell in the intake and screwed my motor up but it ran all the way to my house i hope its just somthing with my carburetor not somthing i dropped in the intake i didnt see anything in the intake putting it back together but i remember losing a washer somewhere

so if someone could help me determine what the problem is i would be happy cause my truck never shakes when idling it shake bad

are you sure you didn't bump a plug wire loose?
shaking isn't usualy a carb problem. unless it's a huge vacume leak but you'de know if you had one that big.

well i pulled plug number 3 out and no gap and is touching electrode
so somthing had to of hit it and you can hear a tapping noise from valve cover but its running now so i might need a rebuild

you probably did drop the washer in the intake and it got sucked into chamber 3 squashing the spark plug, it could still be in there or it might of been blown out the exhaust

No matter how good she looks, some other guy is sick and tired of putting up with her crap!

Might even be holding the stupid valve open too.

well i ll rebuild it here shortly after some cash flows in 350.00 master rebuild kit with timing chain and goodies i guess that isnt too bad but it isnt good either

you might want to look around for a short blosk for that motor ,I saw one about the same price as the master kit and it's a reman, so theres a little more peace of mind and a warranty.

I'll see if i can find that company's page again for ya.

who what where and when

i always see them rebuild ones for about 1000 bucks or more but if 350 dollars with a warranty its sounds to good to be true
