Well stackx2 and I decided to dig into the old brown truck today. Tappet covers been leaking for years. The gasket was about as brittle a tater chip. On top of that we decided it be good to jump a tooth of timing and reseal the front cover. We marked the tooth at the factory location and rotated it clockwise a tooth. Put her all back together and had no real hiccups. Just wondering how much more rattle some of you guys noticed after the tooth skip. I'm running 6x16s so I wonder if I should have gone 2 teeth. Just some thoughts from you guys.
O by the way we took it for a little spin on the back roads and I though I'd role on it half way through 1st. Well tires broke free once everything spooled and it barked twice as it shifted into second. She scoots pretty well now.
