I'm not sure what's going on here with Ol' Smoky, 2N 12v.
Put in new Blue streak points and plugs. Can't get it to run. Pulled distributor and rechecked everything. All looks good. All plugs are firing. But only #3 has becomes black and sooty. Others are clean with oil on them.
Did a compression test:
#1 130 dry 130 wet
#2 95 dry 110 wet
#3 120 dry 130 wet
#4 120 dry 130 wet
That's not the results of a completely worn out engine.
However, this engine has always burned about a quart of oil per gallon of gas.
I've used all the miracle snake oils in the engine. ATE, MMO Sea Form and such.

I think the engine is just about worn out.
But the new compression test has me wounding?
