Misfire Mystery SOLVED! - '78 CHEVY K5 BLAZER - Removing A SBC 350 Cylinder Head - UTX
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 9 окт 2021
- Today at Ugly Truck, the saga of the 1978 K5 Blazer continues. What we hoped would be a simple tune up for this old squarebody has turned into pulling a cylinder head. We're starting to think this thing is cursed! But we're determined to get this small block 350 running and back on the road.
We're a little short on time, so let's see how fast we can get this cylinder head off and find the source of this misfire. We start by unhooking the exhaust pipe from the exhaust manifold, draining the radiator, and then start working under the hood. We remove the valve cover and get all of the rockers and pushrods out of the way, and pull the exhaust manifold off of the head. At this point, we can take the ground strap off the back, pull the distributor out, loosen the intake manifold, and we're ready to yank the cylinder head. Easy sleazy!
Turns out, the source of the misfire wasn't a burnt valve, but a bent valve! Normally there is plenty of clearance between the valve and piston on a stock SBC, and with no signs of debris or foreign material, this leads us to believe that someone got a little carried away when they were setting valve lash. No matter the cause, we're happy to replace the valve and give this Blazer the second chance it deserves!

Thanks for the nice comments. Emily and I run a private shop that is actually named Ugly Truck. My name is Jerry, Emily refers to me a few times in our videos. We got into doing RUclips videos because we enjoy working on them and also loved watching what others were doing online. What other channels do you like watching?
Jerry and Emily thank you for your reply back I would really love to meet you it’s about both of you I am just a simple man just like you yourself nobody’s better I loved working on old cars and instead of new cars “I’ll be 57 years old this year what got my attention Jerry is that the way the way you teach that nice young lady how to work on cars for instance work on that 1965C10 truck and swapping a 1985 motor to a LS motor rewiring that LS 5.3 motor the Wright way , impressive,you know what I,m talking about.By watching you,thought me how to rewire that 1985 C10 that truck,Thank you Jerry and your helper Emily I have a good question for you?I have a 1961 impala super sport I’m looking for a two speed wiper motor and some other parts for my super sport would you be able to sell me a wiper motor for two speed wiper motor for my impala super sport?If you have one a wiper motor a two speed wiper motor can you take me back a reply and let me know what would you like to have for like two speed wiper motor?I would be more comfortable to buy a wiper motor of you since you’re a private shop owner that’s how I’m raised “I also need a steering manual steering gearbox for my impala if you have those parts or able to locate those parts again can you text me a reply back back to me and let me know?I also watch another channel called Vice grip garage his name is Derek his famous line is that that he says I’ll be dipped good channel just like your channel thank you Jerry and Emily Anthony Seger I’ll be more than honored to give you my email or better yet my personal cell number because I really do need these parts for my car I own this car for at least almost 10 years on the second owner of this in Impala thank you again be well Anthony Seger
Yes Vice Grip Garage, we are very familiar with their channel. It's a big part of the reason we started doing videos. As far as parts go, I learned a long time ago to not keep old parts around. It's starts looking like a salvage yard very quickly. What you're looking for shouldn't be too difficult to find. Sorry to not be any help there. We are working on some new videos like crazy. Hope you enjoy them. Thanks for watching.
Damn I thought my 78 k5 was greasy!
If it's leaking oil, it has oil! 😂 It definitely needs some detailing, but it's been a fun project. Thanks for watching!
Could the valve have been stuck open and on the initial turning of the motor it was bent or was there no sign of rust
No sign of rust or foreign material anywhere. Even if the valve had stuck in it's full open position, it still shouldn't contact the piston on a stock motor. The valve would have to have been open more than the normal position. This Blazer has definitely been an interesting project!
Am I the only one thinking it would have been better if you would have just pulled the intake AND the other head? recondition both for a top end rebuild, then reinstall rather than going through all the motions of doing just 1 head, gambling on just reconditioning that one head when the other with as many miles just being fine and trustworthy? better to get both while you are at it, right?
Hello Gret. Most of the trucks that we do video on are owned by our customers so we don't really get to do what we want some times. Even though, theres not really much need to take that other head off since it was fine on compression check. If I wanted to put new valve seals in I could do that with the head installed. This is just an attempt to get it running nicely staying in the budget that we are given. Thanks for watching. Jerry and Emily
