progress and lack there of

[healeyboz]

Well, I have made a few posts in recent days. I got the oil to stop pouring out of the crank pulley seal!! Yeah!!!!

Took her out for another drive finally. After careful thought......

I got spark, I got fuel,,,,, I think something has slipped in the timing cover. I have a friend coming over tonight and bringing me everything that I might need to fix the problem. Looks like another all-nighter!!

Then I can work on the other bugs that I was working on before this!!

Oh man.

I was wrong. Lack of spark. Thank Goodness I didn't pull the timing cover back off after the leak is actually fixed.

Jack, you will be happy to know that she only drips a drop after she has been turned off. And from where she is supposed to!!

Please knock on some wood for me.....

I hate you Barry.

Now Jack, at least Miss Agatha currently runs.

And I am taking bets on how long it takes mine to start leaking more. Guess I won't know until it actually runs again. :frown:

Check the white wire on the coil for +12v to ground with the ignition on. If you have that then clean the points and try and start it up.
