Update: Worked on it today.
I changed the intake manifold gaskets, and the valve cover gaskets. Before I did so I did a compression test... Not Good
150 170 155 145 110 115
The good is I found out why it was not starting - the hose that goes from the intake manifold to the brake booster was disconnected. Once I connected it, it started right up. As for when I accelerate, some times itdies when the revs come back down. I was revving it to about 3krpm, and there was like 3-4 pops each time. I didnt understand that; there was a lot of exhaust popping. White smoke came out of the exhaust for a little time, but was clear and unseen for the rest of the time.
While the car is idling or accelerating there is a ticking sound; I hope its not a fed up rod. I hope its just a lifter. But I doubt it. I will have a vid up by Sunday. Any words?
