I seem to remember going to O’reillies to pick a regulator for a carb conversion and was adjustable one. Been a few years ago.going back to the store tomorrow or Thursday and can see if I pulls up again. I looked for the one that I picked up but it is lost somewhere in the garage of chaos ...

I had used Ospho before I had a jeep and had very good results. On farm equipment tools etc. I have just kept using a product that I was familiar with.

I should add that mine is no show jeep. I’m not a professional painter.

I use it on mine. Haven’t had any issues. I live near the Texas coast so any time I scratch the paint rust quickly starts. Just sand, ospho and paint.

I know how he feels!

And thank you machoheadgames

It’s alive! Thank you Flyer58 And all who have helped me . I took the distributor out and reset. Started right up and purrs like a kitten.

Plugs were wet

In my original post when I said the jeep was running bad I should have mentioned that it was sputtering and backfiring through the throttle body. Now it cranks much better than it did just no running.

I got everything put back together and now it cranks but won’t start. I have spark and fuel to the rail. Won’t even try to start with starter fluid. I have no idea what to do now.

Thank you for the feedback. I am on a mission now. I will get this jeep running. Like I said before I am not a mechanic but I can follow instructions. And I know that listening to folks who have the knowledge is always a good idea.

I have no idea. It makes absolutely no sense to me. The distributor was also backwards. I can’t figure out how it ran at all. I only drove it once or twice after motor rebuild. I bought the Chilton manual and followed the instructions. Also this forum and a bunch of YouTube videos. I...

I’m not sure about the longer snout but it is the only thing that makes sense to me. Nothing looks bent and all the bearings are in place.

Well I found one of my problems. My camshaft was 180 degrees off. And for my original problem iread on a thread that there were 2 castings for the crankshaft in 92. One has a longer nose. Think I have the longer one. I never noticed but I’m wondering if shop that rebuilt the motor just...

I’ll give it a shot. Thank you

That was dumb of me. Sorry for the question. I did not know the key was removable.

What is the key? Since I don’t know it might be the problem.

That’s how mine used to look.

I tried to pry a little on the front. No movement . Couldn’t get a real good angle on it with leverage.

When I remove bolt and washer it’s flush.
