Well got the old girl fired up today and she is running better than ever! The new fuel filter has made a difference for sure. Took many, many primer strokes to get the fuel pushed up in to the carbs...hundreds before any resistance could be felt, and I hit the old kigass pump about ten times and then got the first sputter from the engine in 3 weeks...so back at it with the priming, and some accelerator pedal action and she is alive...hopefully next week I will get a chance to try the lever flick shift test...just happy that she's back running...unlike a Sherman, moving a dead Centurion is not for the faint of heart or stingy wallet.
1st Parade....CHECK FUEL!!!!!!!
