Hello. I came across this site while looking for info on a motor grader project I'm looking to start.
I have a 1949 Allis Chalmers D model grader that I would like to make run to maintain my driveway. This grader came with the property when I bought it. It was parked around 10 years ago and may have had parts taken from it for other things.
The engine will turn over. It doesn't have a lot of compression, but I've got some marvel oil in the cylinders, hopefully that'll help.
The question I have is how is the ignition supposed to be wired? Does it need a coil? The only thing wired up is the starter motor.
I appreciate all the info I can get, thanks in advance.
