Hi folks!
I figured out why I wasn't getting any fuel.
I had a leak in the compression fitting within
the gas tank. Apparently boiling the tank
didn't hurt a thing.
I put some Marvel Mystery Oil in the dashpots
because they were slapping up and down pretty
badly. It helped, but it still doesn't idle.
I think I have the timing way off. I'll test
it once the trickle charger revives the battery.
The starter really seems to labor turning this
thing over. I hope that is just because the
engine is tight.
More later,
Jim Henderson Sprite MKIV
