hi, got the books for the motor, operation etc, and with the advice of some, today i cleaned up the contacts on the coils, and that was no easy job, remember this is a 1925-6 motor, after i got it together i called the brother because i needed some help checking the spark, so we removed one spark plug and cranked it over, believe it or not, it started up with just the one plug, and it runs great, even better with 2 plugs, we couldn't believe it, my dad never had dit running this good, and i'll bet its been because of the contacts connecting to the coil, now i can really go thru it and paint it orig colors etc, thanks for all the help guys, jerry in Detroit, ps, forgot to say the plugs are from back in the 50's
