Getting my 31 to run right.
So, I got out my 31 and got it running but, just like before I just can't seem to get it to run well. Pretty sure it's a fuel issue as I can get fit to run OK if I hold the choke out at just the right "sweet spot" but it needs to be held open even when warmed up and driving so obviously it isn't getting enough fuel (or too much air). Everything in the distributor is new and timing is dead on, everything inside the carb is new as well as the intake and exhaust manifolds. I have not done anything with the valves. However, I am noticing what appears to be anti freeze on the outside of the block as if its coming out from the head gasket. Not much but the block is not clean like it should be. Head gasket pooched maybe??. thoughts. BTW, I did do a compression check 2 years ago and IIRC they were all within a couple pounds of each other in the mid-high 50's
