2nd Try Startup. Success!!
Thanks to everyone for getting me this far. I rotated the distributor 180 degrees since it wasn't firing on the power stroke. What do you know, it ran! There is good oil pressure and that's a plus. I need to fix some oil leaks, but first I need more help.
Now, I don't know when the last time the engine ran, and maybe this issue will clear up, but as you can see in the video, there is a lot of smoke coming from the vents on the side cover. What suggestions does anyone have for me?
