Re: 1977 Chevy K10 - Starting Problem
FUEL today has ethanol in it. your vehicle with not much use, and with the tanks nearly empty cause the shit fuel sold today to phase separate.
when this occurs the fuel has a top level of low octane fuel , the bottom layer of alcohol and water. SYPHON ALL FUEL OUT//ALL
MIXING NEW FUEL WITH THIS CRAP IN THERE, AND ITS CRAP IN NO TIME !
REPLACE FUEL FILTERS, BUY 10 FILTERS ..
all this fuel must be dumped///thats another problem !
fuel stabilizers and a very tight fuel vapor system is needed to reduce condensation / water to get to this alcohol fuel.
1977 is pre alcohol carb rubber...this means the carb will need new rubber parts to work ..
on low idle with carbs,,,,adjusting the carb to compensate for componet defects is a no no !
with a vacuum guage track down all vacuum line leaks.
1977 vehicle/engine has no points.if the plug wires had arcing I would route the wires correctly using tyraps,loom shielding , and whatever to protect the wires..then replace the ignition module..
post back whats up...
ho ! ho ! ho !
