We have a runner !


Sometimes it helps, 2 heads scratching at the same time. My dad is here on vacation for a few weeks and gave me a hand. What did we do really ? I had realigned the timing, then new spark plugs, news leads and she ran ! So excited, tried to put back the radiator as fast as possible to go for a drive !

The car drove to the next block and back. Quite fun and the engine seems to be working fine although it does idle really high.
Something strange though, it's difficult to put the car in reverse and first gear, sounds like gears grinding together, I know there's no synchro in these 2 gears so that might normal ?
