I do not have the primer installed on this rig. Thank you for the input.

I greatly appreciate what you have told me. After rebuilding the carburetor I have been running and testing the problem for, at least, half a dozen times for 5- 10 minutes without the air lines connected to anything (just hanging there). The original problem that started all of this appeared to...

Thank you for the info I had no idea about. A Test run goes probably around 5-10 minutes max. at idle before the engine quits. The two air horn lines are connected at the distributor but the air cleaner and air horn assembly are and were off when I have test run the engine. I read somewhere...

Had a family emergency and had to step away from my M43 problem. Am now back at it and family issue came out fine. I tested the compression 1= 100, 2 =95, 3=97, 4=95, 5=98, 6=100. I think compression is not a problem. I pulled number one plug to check for spark. Grounded the plug body to the...

Thanks

Do you have a picture of the tester?

Order with MECO cancelled and reordered the Da Bella coil today...Thanks again for the info. I guess MECO realized that the manufactured in the USA statement in the ad was incorrect so they accepted my premise to cancel the order if it was the run of the mill shiny chrome Chinese product.

Am trying to cancel order if this item is Chinese Made instead of "as advertised" in the ad as manufactured in the U.S.A. Sent MECO a cancellation request explaining this.

Thanks for this vital info. Wish I had waited...your post is very important. I bought this because it shows the country of manufacture as the USA and t he pictures on Ebay did not look like shiny chrome of the Chinese product. New 24 volt Coil Jeep Willys M38 M38A1 M151 M37 11663066 7374882...
