bluetop not firing up after headgasket change???? HELP!!!

Postby Rollin' » Fri Apr 09, 2004 9:52 am

just replaced the headset on my corolla, 4age, and its all back 2gether, and it wont fire up, my mechanic is doiing all the work and he is stumped, at the mo it seems to be a fuel issue, with it getting too much and flooding it.
any light on the situation would be great, what little thing,or big thing could it be???

Well I just did my one

Timing definetly an issue
If it blew a headgasket there will be a bit of shit still in the block (water) so that might be it

Spark Plugs

Make sure all the vacuum lines are plumbed into the correct places
