Perhaps the wire in the distributor os grounding just like points burnt together

was told the other day that one of the fellas was using 30w diesel oil in his car any pros or cons from what i read it has different detergents

Was over your way a couple years ago and was talking to a guy that had 5 Model A 's He was around Verden ..He worked in a Mercedes resto shop...Heading back this year .

The Generator was given to me,It was suppose to a rebuild but he could not get it to work ..I put it on my car but it also did not charge ....well decided to flash it,,,,it ran in the opposite direction of the motor...so poles are backwards...switched the poles ..motored in the right way...

I don,t have access to a Growler so I used my ohm meter on the commutator segments ..180 degrees apart they were about4 ohms ..and about .2 of a ohm segment to segment except one which was .7......and com to rotor was about 2 megs all sound good to me.....put a battery charger and an amp...

Just started with mine

When flashing a gen. ..should it motor in the direction the engine rotates or the opposite ditection

Thanks for all the replies

i WONDER IF ONE PUT A MAGNET OFF TO ONE SIDE..IT WOULD HOLD LOOSE RUST IN ONE PLACE..i SEEN THEM IN OIL PANS AND INFACT i SEEN THEM IN COWS TOO '''LOL

I feel this reply from a senior member is totally inappropriate..I was having a problem installing them and wanted a better picture to see if my installation was correct..perhaps one can only ask the right questions on this form
