My 90 has been down for 6 months. rebuilt engine, all back together. When I try to start it runs extremely rough and shuts down. Checked all connections, fuel pressure, sc tube connections, doubled checked plug wires. Ripped engine back apart to check timing to make sure I didn't screw up the marks. All appears OK. I have had it at a tech school with 5 (count'em 5 master mechs) to no avail. I followed the manual when when tighting the rockers, looks to have no adjustment. I had .003 taken off the heads when they were rebuilt. Is that enough to change the push rods? Book says .09-.019inch clearance. I do not have that. More like .009-.012inch. Any ideas, I am about done!!! But despite all these issues, I like this car..........
