Default flathead wont start

Greetings Barners, I thought I should share this, I have a fresh rebuilt 59ab that ran well but developed a starting problem soon after its first run. I went through everything possible like fuel, ignition,compression etc. with no results. The flattie would try to run, spit and sputter and stall. Turns out...DA stupid me, the condenser had broken free of its bracket and was not grounded! I cant take credit for the find, have to give that to Bubbas ignition service. Hope this helps someone out down the road. Ken
