I have a 47 8N (#17xxx) that had set for nearly 10 years before she was given to me 2 summers ago. I changed the battery, spark plugs and all fluids. I removed the carb, cleaned it and adjusted to the I&T FO-4 Manual. I cleaned the points, and set the gap to .015". I have spark and gas to the carb. Spun her over and nuthin. Sounded like she was spinning too fast also. Pulled the plugs and did the old thumb on the hole trick. Nothing. Valves stuck up? My question is does it make more sense to pull the head first or the manifold and the inspection plates for the valves? I think I will have to remove the tube loader to get to the manifold and the valve plates. If they are stuck up, what is the best way to free them? I'd like to see how she runs and do a metered compression test before I do a complete overhaul. Thanks in advance!
