well its a little late now but i hope you have a good air compressor and an adapter to go from that hose to the spark plug hole in the block...

and make sure you clean out the rocker bolt holes good before re-torquing them.

I would start with electrical. Did you disconnect any of the injectors? Go over your plug wires also.

when i instlled my rockers i didnt push my plug wires on to the boots the whole way and it ran like crap..

did you replace the pushrods?

hmm ok.. i was gonna ask if you remembered to put them back in, but if you never took them out..

did you prime the fuel system before trying to crank the car.

also did you change the oil afterwards.

i was going to the run the car for 30 miles or so then change it thats what i did before. I just dont understand how it could be electrical and the motor turns over that HARD like something is dragging

no i dont think its electrical. if youve got power and the car cranks like it does its not electrical.


unless its your coil packs...did you take those off? they have to be installed a certain way.


6/3
2/5
4/1


if you put them on any other way and match the correct plug wires to the corressponding # on the coil pack, your car wont start because the coilpacks will be acting as the one that SHOULD be in its place and then all the wires are actually mis-matched.


(also know this by experience)

i just took the bracket off not the coil itself. It was 1 am last night when we tried starting it and we glanced at some stuff but by not putting the correct pedistals in could that have done it? I thought i did put them in but maybe i over looked them

im not sure, are you using modded stockers?

my roller rockers came with different pedistals.


but im guessing the modded pedistals are essitial to the modded rockers.

yeah i am using ZZP modded stockers (1.9) I have been emailing back and forth with zoomer at ZZP and that is one question he asked if i put the modified pedistals in.

one of my rockers was hitting my valve cover and we had to tear it back down..

Go back to the basics. It takes three things to make a motor work. Air, fuel, and spark. Your not getting one of them.

Takes compression, too. If the valves are hanging open due to the pedastal being wrong, he could have all three, and it not run.

If you checked over everything you did and found nothing wrong, especially crossed plug wires. Then hotrodolds is probably correct. Your valves are probably hanging open.

Do you have a strong fuel smell coming from the exhaust?

What I'd be concerned about is if it is turning over hard, either bent valves, or a rocker hitting the valve cover, too.

dont say bent VALVES!!! or that wont be FUN! zoomer thinks i didnt use the modded pedistals when i installed them i thought i did but maybe not i will tear it down tonight look everything over and put it back together and try again

are you sure your getting fuel???? it sounds like your getting spark and obviously your getting air.

Oh god, that could end in disaster. Hopefully, it's the pedistals and you can change them without incident.

Did you change anything other than the Rockers?

never touched the injectors or plugs, all i changed was the rockers....i will be breaking into it in about 45 mins i will be on chat keeping you posted
