1993 Pickup 4x4 3.0


I installed a new engine, had the block bored and heads redone.
The engine turns over and almost starts, sputters a little and dies.
I have double checked the vacuum lines and pulled the front of engine back apart to check timing marks all fine.
I have spark and I have gas just need them to work together.


Any help would be great

 

Spark timing....?

 

It sounds like your distributer might be off by a tooth or two, i would try setting the engine to tdc and pull the cap off the distributer and make sure the rotor is pointing towards the #1 wire

 

Yes. Start by adjusting your timing from one extrwme tot the othwr aandsee what happens.
