It runs
All,
Well what a evening I have got to the bottom of why she wouldnt fire and it appers the rotar arm was 180 deg out. Basicly it ment taking the dissy abart and rotationg the distributor drive through 180 deg and reassembling. And what would you know she actually fires and runs and what a sound. Thats the first time she has run since 1972 when the prevouse owner parked the alligator up.
So two years of rebuilding have proven to be a great success. I only ran it for a few minuites this evening. but over the weekend I am planning on leaving it running for a lot longer. It makes such a diffrance having it bolted in a engine cradle. I have got full access to all areas without the restrictions of the hull getting in the way.
My thanks to everyone. You have made one very happy owner.
So untill the next time
Bryan
