An 800 double pumper does sound good in theory but if you are just cruising around you may be too rich.If you smell gas at idle you are wasting gas in a street car.Try to find a friend with a smaller carb to test with and get it to temp before checking for issues.As stated that's condensation...

Thanks and it was a good day.

That green corroded wire in the bulkhead you said was the ammeter could be losing connection and your problem.Clean that up and check again

You may have found your problem but don't rule out a bad battery.I had a battery a couple years old and the terminal inside the case was broken.It would start for a while then one day nothing no click,lights nothing.I would twist on the terminal while some one turned the key over to start...

Sounds like you may have put the oil pump,drive gear in a bind.So you did start the engine?If so and it didn't have pressure then you most likely damaged the gear or the pump.

Impressive.Beats wire brushing,don't ask me how I know.Interested in seeing your final ratio.

Welcome from Tennessee.Two great vehicles to spruce up.

Happy B Day

Happy Easter everyone.

Was the engine running?While running the shaft the pulley bolts to has a magnetic pull.Never heard of one going so far as to magnetize the pulley though.I wonder if it was over charging?
