I have a B engine in my 30 speedster that was running like a top. Was in the 4th of July parade and ran out of water. Got hot and it stopped! Had to tow it home. The block was cracked, externally! With the help of J/B weld and block seal did the trick. As it was down I adjusted the valves. So far everything is going smooth RIGHT? WRONG!! It started right up. Running a little rough. Let idle a few minutes. Checked the wires to be sure they were on right, they were. #4 is missing. Checked the points, Put in new plugs change the wires, cap, rotor,check the comp. 65 lbs in all Cyl . #4 cyl. is dead What is wrong?? Any help Please!!!!!!
