After getting my friends engine partially back together I now realize what I did wrong on mine... I Started running valves at tdc at beginning of intake stroke. If I hadn't messed up I'd prolly never had learned this lesson lol. So I'm thankful.
If you can blow in the inlet and air comes out the nozzle I'd say she's wide open haha. I noticed it bubbling even when I was rolling engine over when running valves. Fingers crossed that this will get it on the road for awhile.
