Hi all just an update on my problem, i went out to have another go at my Ke tonight working by flood light in the driveway ( timing problem ) and I looked down the carby side of the engine and the exhaust pipe was literally glowing red hot and even the manafold was pink. I can't seem to get the timing regular as it starts to either rev off its tits or want to stall and backfire Now I am totally confused and aggravated, l would love any ideas please cheers Max666

Hi All I'm new to ke70s so sorry for dumb question in advance, if I hava a Bosch dizzy, are the points specific to it?

Hi all still no love out of the 4K, done all I can do, still won't accelerate. Anyone know of someone in inner west Sydney that can take a look at it, not giving up on it, but just don't want to break something else. TIA for your help all the same cheers Max

Am I right in resetting carby, turn all screws in and 2 turns back out to make it run as a reference point?

Thanks for all your replies, ill start from scratch today and I'll post it back up asap As for footage of the problem, you say post to YouTube first then link it here, am I correct? Cheerrs Max

Hi I checked engine fuse . All good and disconcected the solinoid still the same, anyway of sending a video of the problem running?

Thanks for your reply. I'll give that a go shortly and see how it goes,and get back to you and yes I checked all leads and plugs , I can get it running but it won't accelerate. sorry for stupid questions but what would have caused the smoke from under the rocker cover rubber flange? I know I've done something I shouldn't have but I want to know what so I don't repeat it,

Hi Corolla gurus, so I changed and adjusted the points on the 4K , set the timing, seemed to over rev, then I saw a bang and a puff of smoke from just above no3 spark plug or piston. Now no matter what I adjust on the carby it idles rough and when I pull the accelerator cable it seems to bog down and wants to cut out, if I push through, the fuel in the the carby flames out of the top of carby. 1) is it flooded? 2) blown head gasket? Thanks for any advice , spent all day on it , driving me nuts !!!! cheers All
