Default Re: Having trouble starting model A

Do you know how to start a Model A? Not as straight forward as you may think.

1 retard spark all the way, left lever to up position
2 advance throttle a little, right lever down a little
3 turn choke rod/mixture all the way to the right and then back off one turn
4 open gas turncock
5 turn on key
6 hit starter
7 pull choke rod closed and then immediately open
8 if it doesn't start when you open the choke after a 1-2 revs something is wrong.
