Engine won't stay running.

Vacuum leak was the problem! I'm amazed a small leak could K.O. the entire engine but it did. Hoping to finish up in a day or 2

Very nice! And you didnt even need us for it! (Too bad we were all wrong) so did you have the throttle body off before this all started?

 

[Range98]

Yes I did. I took the plenum completely apart to paint it. I was rushing to put it back together and somehow completely missed the hole in the gasket. It set me back about 5 days but at this point I'm just glad to have it running.

Yep that explains it lol. Good to hear you figured it out! Good job

Thanks Farm boy. I am actually going on it's maiden voyage tomorrow morning! I had to replace the radiator which I wasn't expecting and other little things along with work kept the progress going slow. I think I'm finally ready to see what it can do. I'll post some pics tomorrow probably too.
