Hello everyone,
My Dad has been restoring a 1929 Model A for the last few years. When we pulled it into the garage it was running nicely. Now years later I cannot get it to start. I took the carburetor apart and cleaned throughly. Cleaned fuel lines. The problem seems to be no spark on cylinders 2-4. #1 I have visual confirmation of spark via spark plug out of the hole. The other cylinders I can feel some voltage going through but it's not much. #1 cylinder will make you dance when it hits. I have cleaned the contacts on the distributor cap as well as the rotor. Here is a picture of the distributor.
Thanks in advance for the help. I can't wait to hear this thing run again!
