I try to start Rusty once a week to exercise him until he's complete. Well it has been about 3 weeks so I go to start him....engine cranks and cranks until battery is dead. I was scratching my head...gas was off...charged battery for a hour, turned on gas and cranked right up. LOL It's that damn new battery cutoff switch I installed that got me out of my normal routine. Rather that than a house fire.

So why did it crank if you had the battery cutoff switch turned off? Sounds like you are only cutting power to the key switch.Comment

a properly set up A, which yours obv. is, will usually fire up in just a couple of revolutions. If not, drop back and think about what is going on.
None of us have ever left the key off when trying to start!!!!! LOL LOLComment

Beauford, you are not stupid, just Model A challenged. Once you get in the habit of driving it around daily, it will all become second nature.You wana look waaay far up da road and plan yer route because the brakes are far more of a suggestion than a command!Comment
