![]() Well I bought the engine for a local junkyard, and there's no telling how long it set with no oil. I've been running the engine for exactly one week now and I can still here a slight ticking noise.
The engine itself is beginning to run alittle better at times but the whole car vibrates horribly in all gears especially 5th. Should I replace my driveshaft with an aluminum version? Also I finally installed my fuel pressure gauge and it showed 41lbs. I set it to 37lbs with the vacuum off and the idle smoothed out a bit, but I'm still getting that sputter. Thanks for the tips.
