Yes, but once again, the engine did not sound healthy at all. I believe the flooding is happening because something is not working and when it takes too long to start. Would this have anything to do with the rebuilt transmission? Or some oil spill as I was putting in new oil? Someone told me, as I was putting the flywheel bolts on, in the process of turning the crankshaft, I may have done something to the timing chain. But, wouldn't that cause the full engine to fail, not only one side?


I am just hoping it is an easy fix so I can go back and check if the transmission works better now..


Cheers,


Ozzie
