Engine Timing near Dayton, OH?

[DirtyDYT]

Been stuck with timing problems for a month. Bottom line is that I can’t time a V8 to save my f-ing life. Not interested in trying anymore.

Who can I hand money to in exchange for them doing the timing?

Seriously, I need help. The help I was supposed to have has flaked and I have nobody else to ask. I’m desperate to get this thing moving before this winter and the timing is the last major hurdle.

I’m such an idiot. After sucking up my pride and asking for help I looked at some old photos of the engine and realized I had it 180 degrees out of time.

Turns out it runs just fine. *facepalm*

At least you kept going with it and solved it. There are people who come on here simply asking, “what’s wrong with my truck?”

Good deal! If you end up needing anymore help with it, just let me know and I'll see what I can do.

Not a one of us was born knowing this stuff. Congrats on getting it sorted out
