Startup video

Rebuilt the carter carburetor this weekend. Truck has been sitting for a while now. Playing around with the new camera and shot this video of startup and a bit of revving.

YouTube - 1963 Ford F100

I had to set the timing by ear, so I'm not sure it's exactly right. Need to borrow a timing light from my Dad sometime. There is a little white smoke from the carburetor after shut off. Not sure what that is, hopefully it will burn off.

doesnt sound too too bad...is that from a stone cold start or ??? The idle seems high if it is up to temp though. I like your audience though in back :-) Gotta love kids curiosity...and staying out of harms way...
