OK, I know it is not a Farmall but it is red! I am working on my 1966 Chevy C60 grain truck. It has sat in a machine shed for the last three years, but before I parked it I put plenty of stable in the gas. Two weeks ago I put in a new battery and 5 gallon of fresh gas and it started right up. I drove it back to my place roughly 8 miles and parked it. A few days ago I went to move it to the shop and it will not start. I have fuel to the carb and spark to the spark plugs. If I give it a little wiff of either it will run for a second. If I let it turn over it never wants to try, but I can smell gas out the exhaust. Tonight I pulled all the spark plugs and cleaned them up. They were wet with gas and had some carbon buildup but nothing out of the ordinary. Although I have spark at the plugs, I turned the key on and held the coil wire to a ground but did not get a spark. Do you think my coil suddenly went bad? What do you guys think I should try next. I have a set of new plugs, wires, points, condenser and coil coming tomorrow. Thanks for any advice on things to try.
