Bought a (1953?, don't have title yet)Chev 6400 grain truck at an auction. Ran just fine at the beginning, but when the item came up for auction, it would not start, just starter "working", no fire whatsoever. Am pretty sure someone messed around with the truck, distributor? I am aware of the old saying "15 is too young, 36 too old, 24 just right" as far as the firing order is concerned. If I apply this to this truck, it does not match at all. And second, where do I start to count on the distributor, clockwise, counter-clockwise? I did label it without any idea on how it is suppose to be, to make it a bit easier to describe. Would appreciate any help! Thanks in advance, Ralph. PS: truck is sitting at a gin, no mechanic nearby to ask and the auction is from an estate.... can't ask the previous owner.
