As for the drill motor turning the pump, it is plenty fast enough. The pump/dist only turns about 300 rpm when the engine is idling anyway. You are turning it...
Okay, it gets weirder by the minute. Went out this morning and pull the distributor. Removed the oil filter (spin on remote) and drained any oil in it. Put...

Thinking I screwed up putting the distributor back, I started all over with the static timing. Finished it up, hit the button and she immediately roared to...
This is getting interesting. Sounds like the distributor is not engaging the oil pump or something is wrong the key at the end of the shaft that doesn't spin...
Done it Ed. Everything looks good. Matched everything up to my spare distributor. I am assuming that if it weren't good it wouldn't seat properly and I had...

Mike, I have posted this question several times on other forums and I have found it is hard to get an exact answer. Through my research I have found that the...

Jeff: The drill did take awhile yesterday. Once the pressure started to build the drill was getting sluggish so I understand your first comment. Yes, this is...
Nick don't you dare go to a reduced address list. This is good information for ALL of us. The trouble shooting of this problem is very interesting to me and I...
Don't worry about the address list, most of us are with you all the way. Nothing like a good witch hunt! You mentioned 1/2 " pipe plugs, where were these...
