The Ford Barn - View Single Post - Engine not starting - checked everything

I had the same thing after rebuilding the engine. Everything was OK, but it did not run !

Finally checked the camshaft timing. That was completely wrong, 10% off !

Do check the timing, cam gear dot to the right edge of the crank gear peg.

Wish you luck !
