Ok
likely not hot enough, ran it for 15-20 min. checked compression. Plugs are in the picture Left to right 1, 2, 3, 4 also. The 1974 had the lowest compression (right?). So is this low? Thanks gang Attached image(s) |

Two words. Valve adjustment. Like the others have said, misadjusted valves will wreak havok on your engine performance, proper idle, starting, gas mileage, etc. And the most feared of them all, a dropped valve seat. Carnage beyond description!!!!
