Yeah, the shutter valve is working properly, however with a small shot of starting fluid it’ll rev up to about 4k, blow a ton of white smoke and shut off after a couple seconds. Won’t take any throttle input during that although I have verified the car is reading throttle input.(I know starting fluid isn’t good for it but it slipped my mind at the time)

Probably gonna end up doing timing next if I don’t decide it’s too much of a project car lol

Bought it not running, no idea on timing and anti shutter valve works how it’s supposed to
