Relative to an earlier response, rotate the crank until it is again pointing at TDC and see which plug the rotor is pointing to. As someone has already pointed out, you could have the distributor ins

Correct. I mis-wrote. As Mark points out, you need to check the valves to confirm you are on the correct stroke. Roland

There are two types of taps (at least). What you probably want is what is referred to as a bottom tap. This type of tap only has a slight taper at the very bottom. They are a bit harder to start in a

As it happens the Eastwood kit consists of 2-part PC7. Don't know if that's more than the stuff cost in a hardware store or not. Roland

Some things just aren't worth the effort. Plus I'd have to 1) buy a melting pot, 2) buy the little stove to melt it on, 3) make/buy(?) a mold that would accept molten lead. How many lead hammers woul

One final comment on the knock-off wrench I was thinking about ordering. This is the wooden version with "wings" you either grip by hand or tap with a mallet. Anyway, before placing an order I checke

You can torque dry or lubricated, but the torquing specs are different. If the manual is unclear, check a source that gives dry and lubricated torquing specs for the bolt size and grade. Yes, you can
