One way that you are going wrong is in being sure that you are getting enough gas. I have two newer 4 cyl gas Fords. I have noticed that any time that they don't fire up pretty quickly, especially the one that is six volts, when cold, that gas will run out of the carburetor. ALWAYS. I believe that this is just a fact of gravity with an updraft carb. So don't let this be an indication of getting too much gas because it is normal.

You will probably need to watch the number one plug to see when it fires while turning by hand.
