In every cylinder, because the fuel pump, which isn't frozen and isn't leaking through its antique gaskets under pressure, keeps delivering enough gas through a filter and line that aren't hopelessly plugged with gunk, from a gas tank with fuel clean enough to make the trip.

It's like that one dude who you think is broke but you find out he has over 6 figures in his savings account

I guess she wanted you to get a work out, lol. She definitely made you work for it. This one was really cool. I could actually hear it as each cylinder came back to life. This one was good save for what has to be a pretty rare truck. I hope you keep your promise and restore this one.

Logically, I cannot for the life of me explain why, pray tell that I am mesmerized by these videos and am unable to tear myself away from them.

I definely wanna see one day this thing gets restored back to life, would be awesome to see it running again on the road. I'm not a huge car specialist but iwhat I think is that if the engine works fine, the rest will just be as easy to get it back running.

Would switch to Dewalt or Makita impact wrench to crank over engine. Amazing it survived the WWII scrap drive.
