Ok So I still cant start my DSM. I rebuilt the head and put in new gaskets throughout the motor. My timing is right and my plugs are good. Everything got plugged back in and all is good. When i try to start it, it doesnt, it will pop but will not start, not even idle. I pulled of my valve cover and there is alot of oil in the plug housing.(or where the plugs go into the wires.) especialy number for. Help me out DSM buddies. I need it. I have to get this thing running. It is a stock motor, all that is done is exhuast manifold. I bought the car for 400 bucks and it ran but it need a head gasket. Is there anyone in my area. I would like to get to know some other DSM guys. I have met one or two, but more would be nice.

Thanks Guys
 
IF there is oil ontop of the plug down in the hole go buy a new Valve Cover gasket and install it. Then replace the plugs with NGK and it might start. Its definatly not going to start if oil is standing atop the plugs :notgood:
