1941 160 Running again

Posted by 29tons On 2018/10/20 15:31:47
Got the engine running again.The carb was flooding so I took that apart and freed up the float. It sounds surprisingly good and smooth .Let it run a while and most of the marvel mystery oil is burned out of the cylinders.The coil died about 10 minutes in when it was running put another one on that I had laying around and it fired back up.The oil pressure is 40 psi hot.And the radiator Did not run hot.It had an old atlas battery in it I will try to add a picture.The generator was not charging if you have any Ideas let me know. The guy that i bought this off of said his dad stopped working on the car in 1954 or 1955.The best thing about the car is it was inside a nice garage the entire time. Thanks again for the help
