Hi from Green Bay...
L-134 - SLOW CRANKING ON STARTUP ATTEMPT
My 2A's flathead-4 is *very slow* to turn over while attempting
to start, to the point of battery drain and strain. Makes one
think the engine has too much compression for the starter to
handle.
It will turn a few revolutions, then stop. I must then turn key
again for a new attempt, even on a fresh battery.
12 volt system. My experience with this engine is new.
Is this common to the 134? Does it sound like I might have
another problem [starter, timing?]
Once running, she is smooth.
VACUUM MOTOR TO INTAKE MANIFOLD - WORKS SUPER
Also, I mounted the vacuum wiper motor to driver's side
windshield. Ran new fuel line hose down to intake manifold only.
It is not attached in any way to fuel pump. Works excellent.
Thanks everyone for your tips on that one. The NAPA guys were
great in finding the fitting for manifold.
Thanks to all in advance.
