Default Re: Another new Model A owner.

check compression. timing could be off. use the timing pin get it to tdc with the crank look in the distributor is the rotor trailing edge on post 1? Timing lever on the left of the steering wheel needs to be up for start and half down for idle and slow driving at bottom for high speed. I use a nurex wrench and it sets me so the last notch or two is too advanced. Clean your carb. clean plugs clean points. condenser could be bad coil could be bad.
