It needs a turbo...
So for a while I have been having hard start issues. When it got cold, I had to spray it. There was no maybe to it. What I had to do was start plugging it in when it was below 30, and then turn off the GPs, and spray it. That was the ONLY way to get it going. Also, I rebuilt this thing a few years ago, and probably have less than 10K on it. Definitely less than 20k. I did not do the machine work though. At the time, I did not want to spend a ton of money on the rockers so I just knocked off the high points and threw them back in. The problem with that is that the pass side is too far gone and clicks. Rock Auto had a sale and I got the remaining 13 sets for under 100 bux. So today I put the drivers side in and noticed that the front and second fuel caps were leaking. I put new caps and o-rings on it and that took care of the leaks. I started it with the valve cover off, and it took F O R E V E R for oil to start leaking from the rockers. I have what shows to be 50ish PSI cold and wonder if there is a restricted plug in the block or what. I can not say for sure if the rear rocker EVER started getting oil.
So, my question is, what people have seen for oil at the rockers with the engine cold. I want to see vids if anyone has them. I did not do the machine work, but will pull it and clean all the passages if there is anything that is definitely wrong.
It will be down for a few weeks while I am swapping out for a 5 speed.
