So I converted to a modern 6 volt coil conversion kit, did test runs around the neighborhood turn off turn on all OK. Then this morning went to cars and coffee which is about a 20 minute drive hung out for about 45 minutes, went to start it won’t start. Check the spark it has the standard spark you expect for 6 V, shot a little bit of starting fluid in the carb, turning over turning over not starting, then old timer Mike Hubbard says push the gas pedal all the way to the floor and turn it over to start it, after two tries are doing this it started. He says it was flooded, but I can’t figure out how that solves flooding issue and how it got flooded in the first place? I guess the good news is when it’s actually running it runs fantastic. Just don’t know if I still have an ongoing issue or is it now solved, very confusing
