    Steering Control Valve Problem.

    The best answer I can give on that is when to much hydraulic pressure is applied to the fitting it forces the seal backwards an allows dirt or rust to clog the seal which results in a loss of sealing.

    I tried to start my 454 tonight.

    Don't you own a timing light. Is the distributor points or magnetic pickup. I usually set the timing to start by setting the advance on the damper about 18 degree then open the distributor line up the pickup and lock it. Then make sure the rotor is facing the number one cyl. works for me.

    Install engine with muncie attached??

    I have done this many times it is best to put it in as a assembly. The water pump and the distributor should be off the motor and you need a tilting connection for the cherry picker. If the transition has grease in it you will need a plug for it. If you use a yoke wire it in, I have had them...
