Today, me and a friend adjusted the choke assembly so the car finally starts under it's own power. Starting fluid no longer required. Previously, the temp ran high in as little as 15 minutes. So we also drained and flushed out the radiator and the engine block. The brass plug came out with little trouble and after it's final refill, the temp remains stable and takes much longer to rise. Charging system now gives aproximately 7 volts when tested at battery. Lastly, a thorough grease job was done. Next time it gets the air grease gun. That's a lot of pumping.
