Sup guys. I just moved to this thread 'cause I have a different problem now.. the car was kinda jumpy.. and it seemed like smoke was coming out of a fitting in the back of the manifold? It screws in and then has a little pipe that sticks out, im guessing a hose is to run to it. Truth is, I didnt pay enough attention with some of the hoses.. Also, theres a hose that branches out from the two coolant hoses that run over the passenger valve cover.. I dont know where that goes. Here are some other smaller hoses im not sure about..




That's an old picture.. When I started the car, it was jumpy, and i was hearing "pop-po-popop" coming from my exhaust, so I shut the car off. I also have to replace the vacuum line that broke off the back of my carb, if that could be adding to the problem..

Any ideas will be much appreciated, I want my beast back!
Thanks everyone.

 

Along with the vac problem, it sounds like a timing issue to me.

 

your 180° or maybe 90° off your ignition timing. set piston #1 to compression stroke, tdc and check your rotor. if its not pointing at #1, you're off.
