and this may be a dumb question by me but what is "setting the dizzy parrallel"? |
setting the dizzy parrallel just means that was how my dist would always sit at (the mallory sticker would be parallel with the cab)
now when i set it parallel it wont even start
it seems to me that my truck is doing simular things as yours the motor just has a sick sound to it (idleing or in gear)
the only way i can explain it is you know when your sick and you get flem in your neck and you clear your thoat---thats what my trucks exhaust pipes sound like now..
the rpm does move a little but i dont have a tach
