Update to last week's "first time post-rebuild" story
For those of you who were following my tales of my Nova's re-emergence on Steve's Site, after the drivetrain rebuild, at the local Dragstrips, this update may be of interest.
I checked the driver's side bank of plugs and found almost all of to be PERFECT. A faint rusty tint on each one, except for #7, which was a bit pale in comparison. I could probably richen it up (primary jets or secondary metering plate??) just a tad and not do too much damage to the overall tune.
The biggest thing I found wrong was that the timing had advanced itself to 14* BTDC. :clonk: I backed it off to 11* and I'll try the track again soon.
Thanks for listening.
