Guest Frank280z Posted November 29, 2000 Share Posted November 29, 2000 Take out your fuel pump. Be gentle with that cam. Bearings are our friends. Frank ------------------ Build it. Drive it. Improve it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pparaska Posted November 29, 2000 Share Posted November 29, 2000 I agree with Frank, sounds like the fuel pump push rod is hanging on the first lobe. Then again, if you did the JTR install, you wouldn't have a fuel pump there! ?? IF all the lifters are removed, and the distributor is out, I don't know what it could be besides a messed up or lose cam bearing, which I hope it isn't! BTW, is the oil pump drive shaft all the way down so it's not hanging on the cam? Maybe it got pulled up when the dirstributor came out?)
