1941 Willy’s Slat Grill

Have I ever worked on a points distributor ? No, I always upgrade to electronic. But that’s not happening on this 41 MB.

It’s been having some issues accelerating and even almost stalling at stop lights. So I figured I’d see what i could clean up.

I cleaned up the mechanical advance, adding some white lithium grease. Cleaned and set the gapped the points.

I’m amazed at how much it woke this little motor up. It idles smooth and is fairly peppy for what it is. IMG_2968.jpegIMG_2969.jpegIMG_2971.jpegIMG_2972.jpeg
