dieseling problem
Ok after replacing the busted valvespring, after resetting the valves, resetting the timing, ect.... the car still diesel when you shut it off. Now the car seems to run fine, doesnt run hot. But will diesel every time you shut it off. I am at a loss as to why shes still running lean and need suggestions.
Compression on that cylinder is good so I assume I dont have a bad valve. What else can I check? Possibly a pushrod? I checked it on a straight edge and it looked ok. When setting the valve im going while running back off till they tick, tighten till they stop and then 3/4 turn. Possibly still a valve out of adjustment? Timing is @ 12 initial also. HELP guys im stumped.
