A couple of days ago i called the guy with the SMTA diesel that i bought and asked him if it would be ok to come get it this weekend because the ground was frozen or else i would have had to wait until it dried out by his place. When i was there put money down to hold it he said that i would be able to drive it up on the trailer. So today when i got there he didnt have it running and i wasnt to happy about it so after a while of arguing he decided to come down to $2500 and he would guarantee me that it would run. So i got it home drained the diesel and gas cleaned carb and put clean gas and diesel back in. Then i drained the oil and put some fresh in. I tried to start it but i am not sure which way the lever should go. Does anybody know which way the lever is sopposed to be pointed? I think that is it forward for gas and back for diesel. So then i tried to start it each way, it wouldnt pop so i checked spark and there was none. I took the cap off and it needs new points and condencer but by then the stores were closed. So i cleaned the diesel fuel jar opened up both canesters one didn't have a fuel filter in it. Then i put it all back to gether and opened up the bleeders at the tops and only one has diesel comeing out of it and that is the one closest to the front end with a filter in it. The other back toward the rear end that didnt have a filter in it didnt have any comming out the top. There is some diesel going into it but not much. Whats the problem? Do i need the filter in there? What way is the lever sopposed to be pointed? Thanks
