Trying to find out mainly the difference in the distributor on my 72 formula. It has the 455 HO motor, and what looks like an HEI dist. As I understand it the HEI did not come out until 1975. The car has not been started in about 10 years, from what I was told. It will crank, but not turn over. I have the gas tank out, as I was working on the trunk floor pan. I just sprayed starter fluid in the carb to see if I could get it to fire up. Can I put the fuel pump lines in a gas can and if so do I put both lines in? Any help on getting fuel to the carb, and how to check for spark from the dist is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
