1952 8N S/M Dist. Still having problems getting the old girl to run. I have now confirmed that the electrical system is in good working condition and have recently re-set the timing. Now my problem is getting the fuel to fire and and turn the engine over. I have gone to the extreme of putting starting fluid in the cylinders, installing new plugs and wires, distr cap, rotor etc.... When I depress the starter the engine cranks evenly, although when I pull the choke the engine has a hard time turning over. Almost like the battery is dying. It also sounds like the starter motor is not functioning properly and causes the positive terminal on the battery to heat up. Once the starter fluid and fuel is out of the cylinder the engine will crank normally again but not start. Please help. I tried to jump start in 2nd gear but the wheels just locked and tore up my yard.
