It must be a f*cked up timing issue. I am now getting fuel to cyl #5 and spark. It is backfiring every 5th revolution or so.

So, did I install my distributor upside down or are my cams 180 degrees off.

I'm going to put my car at TDC at the point where the cam marks are now showing. Then rotate the cams 180 to line up. Does this make sense that I could have them off like this?

 

Dude i your balancer on the right way?

 

HP, it'd be easier to pull the #1 plug, put a stick or straw in the plug hole, figure out when the piston is at TDC, then make sure the cam is on it's mark.

 

Nevermind, car is now running (snow on the ground so I cannot move it anyway) it was not the cams, it was not the balancer.........I am a complete and utter jackass.........

 

Only if you don't share what was wrong.

 

I'm a bigger jackass! My problem wasnt actually frozen fuel, I had no fuel because.......I forgot to replace the fuel pump relay.

 

A simple stethoscope and they sound like a hammer hitting birck when you listen!

you can get the isopropyl alcohol at any auto store...its called HEET.
The red container is ISOPROPYL.....the YELLOW is METHYL ALCOHOL, the stuff i run in water injection.
