Tore down my friends 350 engine in his suburban this weekend to change the head gaskets. Got it all back together and now doesn"t want to run right. Runs for a few seconds and then backfires through the carb and dies. I marked the distributer before I took it out and the crank was not moved while it was apart and it went back in and lined up where it should so I don"t see how the timing can be the problem. When I adjusted the pushrods the haynes manual said to tighten the the rocker arm nut untill all the play is gone and then tighten them another 3/4 turn. I have been told by many people that is is better to have them a hair loose than too tight so I only gave them another half turn instead. Near as I can figure I got one of the intake valves too tight. All opinions apprecaited. Thanks. Mike.
