| Post subject: | Exhaust backfire upon starting |
After rebuilding my distributor and setting point gap to .019, when I try to start it, it doesn't run on its own, and when I turn off the starter, there is major backfire through the exhaust. Please help |

What is the engine timing set at? Firing with an open exhaust valve indicates that spark is way late,, maybe the distributor is a tooth off. |

Thanks for the info, after reading up on it a little more I found out that it was probably a few teeth off. so after some trial and error I finally got it running |
