i havent checked the compression yet or valve adjustment but those are on my list for checks im gonna do.

Rick, it could be as easy as carbon on a valve. That motor did sit a while correct?

67chevy1series · 03-19-2013, 03:55 PM

yeah it sat for about a year. but the spark plugs are all like brand new. not a bit of carbon or dirt in there but i was looking up what causes ruff idle and poor timing and it said timing chain. so i looked at the pics and you can see my timing chain is loose... its also the cheaper of the different ones they sell.. cant believe i over looked it

shawno72 · 03-19-2013, 04:05 PM

Def go with a double roller timing chain. They are cheap and easy to install. Bad weather you say? That means a lot less entries into the show. More chance for me to win

I just looked backthrough the pics, yeah it has slop but I don't think enough to cause a miss, check everything else before you tear it down. Now let me tell ya a story about my dually

It sat a while and one day I drove it and it started missing. After compression test #2 was low I pulled valve cover and started it thinking bent pushrod. Everything looked fine, tapped on the valve side of rockers while it was running miss went away motor knock a couple of seconds and was fine. A chunck of carbon was holding the exhaust valve open. Whew! Moral of the story check everything before you start tearing it apart. Sorry didn't mean to write a dang book

so you want me to do a compressoin test and if any have bad compression then i pull the valve cover and start it up, and tap the valve, what do i tap it with?

**Ol Blue K20** · 03-19-2013, 04:23 PM

a dead blow hammer (soft hammer), also make sure the intake sealed, could be a vacuum leak as well. what I'm basically saying is diagnois it before you fix it. Do you know how to check the intake gasket for leaks?

67chevy1series · 03-19-2013, 04:45 PM

no im not to sure on how to go about checking the intake for leaks.. and i understand what your saying. i have a little list of thingss im gonna try before i throw in the towell and do a new timing chain. im gonna go to my race car buddy and im gonna ask him for some help and me and him will both together go through and figure out whats wrong. hes been messing with small blocks since his middle school years and he still doin derby cars and circle track cars. so hes got his set of tricks and he knows exactly what to do just by sound. so with his help we can get my 327 runnin strong

67chevy1series · 03-19-2013, 04:54 PM
