Im building chassis 73, and i am getting started on putting on the misc engine items like dist, alternator, and plugs and wires. I am having trouble with the middle two plugs. they dont want to go all the way in. a couple turns then they seize up. I am also having trouble with the distributor not going all the way in? has anybody ever had these problems or is this common?

that 22r is'nt even worth the trouble. Get a 22re it will solve your problems.

Chase the threads before you fawk them up. That 22R is FINE. Put some propane on that bitch and let her rip. And instead of having eleventy billion wires under the hood you will only have 3. No brainer to me.

i already have the propane kit. i searched for pics, and noticted that i may have the 22re ditributor instead of the carb one. i didnt think it would matter but they look alot diffrent

x2 on the chase the threads. Easy to cross thread them in the soft aluminum.

"RE" distributor is easily recognizable as it has no advance mechanism. Will run but not very well.

Yeah you need the carb dizzy. I have an extra I think that I will make you a deal on, headin to the shop to work on #95 and will check to make sure.
