If the vacuum line on the fuel pressure regulator is not connected..........then connect it back up but it should still start......

Did you make sure your ignition system is correct?? Coil, to the dizzy.....all the plug wires are where they need to be????

When I did mine, I had my wires screwed up.....it started, but all screwed up [:@]
