73 TR6 project car
It's been sitting since 1987. In a garage until this past year then sitting in a field.
Compression 120-130 on all cylinders.
Static timing set at 12 degrees BTDC per manual.
Replaced coil with proper part ( had a resistance coil even though the ballast resistor is in place and functional).
Points gapped at .015.
Plugs cleaned and gapped at .025
Good spark.
Set valve lash at .010 on all valves.
Didn't do anything with the old carbs which will need rebuilt, but sprayed the venturis liberally with starter fluid to see if it would fire.
Nothing, nada, zilch, not even a hiccup. Drained the battery down,now on the charger.
Thoughts?
Thanks
