Hey Guys,
I've just replaced the head gasket so have rebuilt the head and all back together. I've turned it over for about 5-10 mins for the oil to get into the hydrlic lifters. Now the car STILL doesn't start. When you turn it over with the chock out abit so it can get some fuel it goes to start but then doesn't it just back fires through the carb. I've spoken to a Mechanic and he said its the timming. He comes round and had a quick look and said the timming on the bottom was ok and the head was set at number 1. He said try turning the dizzy which i've done and turn it clock wise and it stops firing if you turn it anti clock wise it just does the same. The mechanic said he can't see anything wrong with it. But it don't start. Any ideas at all? Reason I ask is cause the mechanic isn't around till monday to check it over. He did come round but had to shoot off and do another breakdown job. I can't bare to wait that long to see if the fucker starts.
Hope you lot can help cheers :)
