Hello all,
Ok, here we go. My 78 KC has been sitting all winter. I started a few times to make sure I kept everything lubricated and working. Well it does run now BUT is misfiring (I believe) a bit.
I let it warm up today to 180 degrees and took it for a spin. Unfortunately, it did not run nearly as well as it did when I put it away. The only thing I did to it this winter was add an Edelbrock fuel pump (with ss lines) and changed the fuel. I put high octane fuel in it after the winter. The fuel was very low (below the "Empty" mark) when I added the new gas. I was of the opinion that this may clean the system out after running it but it did not.
Any suggestions? For some reason, I believe one of the Hyd lifters is stuck.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Is sea foam a good idea as an additive to the gas?
And BTW, the break lights do not work now.
