timing
Ok I set it back to the marks I made when I took it apart which I had to turn the pump about a 1/16th of an ich at the shaft and Now it is Extrememly Snappy. VEry responsive but now has an eratic idle But runs Way better. It may be just a tad to much now. I still dont understand why. I mean it has to be around 17.5* now. Has Anyone ran into anything like this?

Well I was thinking that But when I was setting the timing I checked the pin thing on the side of the pump and it was set at 13.5 just like Piers says my pump is supposed to be set. I suppose it could be a possibilty someone switched out the pump but it did not look like it had ever been off.

Look at the tag on the side of it there will be a bunch of numbers If it is a 215 pump one of those numbers will end in 887 or 913 , if those are not there somewhere , you have something else. I used to have a reference for all the different pump ID's that came in dodges , but I can't seem to find it now.
