I bought an Allis B with absolutely no information of it's history. The mag was off the engine, and a rear tire was badly torn - so it had not run recently. Owner was said to have been sick for 10 years.
I have the rear tire replaced, and a friend says the mag is hot. So I'm close to trying to get it running.
First, I propose to pull it around the barn a couple times (in gear) to see if spinning the engine builds oil pressure (it does not have electric start). I don't want to have a running engine to then discover no oil pressure.
Instead of cleaning the gas tank, sediment bowl, and carb and then seeing if it will fire, my idea is to stick my propane torch into the air cleaner intake - with the valve cracked open a little - to see if it fires on propane enriched intake air. If so, I continue the process of cleaning the gasoline fuel parts. If not, I'll have to dig deeper into why it doesn't fire.
