If and OLD M is tuned correctly they will start with a 3/4 dead 6 volt battery SOOOooo there for ya ain't got something wright or by chance it could have been flooded because of a leaking needel and seat . As stated OLD M's will start if ya can get the engine to turn a half turn . Case in point we or i should say that my buddy had and old M gas that had a mounded New Idea picker mounted on her that we sorta hopped up the engine with high alt. pistons and shaved the head with a 450 cam and on a warm day with a new Group 5 6 volt it started like it was 40 below well if the fan blade would make a half turn on anyday of the years that old M would start . So rules of tune up , propper points setting , propper plugs and gaps , propper timming and correct carb set , good battery and charging system good cables and connections Good clean gas and fuel system and your off and running . My old S/H will start down to -35 below but not at 40 below and when it is that cold i ain't screwen with it it can wait till it warms up.
