[@freemansgarageextra]

What would YOU do with the paint? Here's the video where I got this truck running for the first time in years kzbin.info/www/bejne/g5Omp5p5mMRqe7M

Just keep her wet LOL! Looks great! Can't wait for more content on this old girl, she's a beauty for sure!

[@freemansgarageextra]

You and me both!

Kind of jelly of that Rolair air compressor. They'll run a full framing crew and not even break a sweat. The two I had back in my contracting days grew legs and walked off. Along with my jobsite trailer. Which turned up in Tarrant County about 15 years later. Coincidence? Yeah. Probably.

[@freemansgarageextra]

Thats true. It runs very quietly too. That’s terrible. I’m sorry that happened to you & your tools.

Hey man I have a few questions regarding the truck! I’m restoring the same one and have come across a little speed bump!

[@freemansgarageextra]

What's up?

[@kd20902]

@@freemansgarageextra essentially the issue I am facing is when I start the truck up as long as I’m holding onto the key in the start position it fires up….the second I let go and it goes into the run position it turns off. Not sure what the issue is. Maybe you’d know?

@@kd20902 Does your truck have the factory push button like mine as seen on the regular Freeman's Garage channel in this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/g5Omp5p5mMRqe7Msi=L7ilep0MRhpGAuED & this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/fHLdn5lnerNkb9ksi=kljtf2uLiH149mnc

@@freemansgarageextrano it’s a turn key switch

[@freemansgarageextra]

Almost impossible to say without seeing it in person or knowing if it has been converted to 12v etc. After working on mine, the ignition system on these trucks seems to be about the same as any other 6v points ignition system. I would make sure every wire on the key switch, coil, distributor/points, starter, starter solenoid & battery are clean, unbroken, tight & in the correct positions. A couple wires might be swapped around causing your issue. I'd also use a test light to see when & where you have or don't have power when turning & releasing the key. If you bypassed the key switch by running a hot wire directly to coil from battery, used a couple wires or remote start switch to put power to the starter solenoid & the engine starts & stays running, that would be significant. That would make me believe your coil, distributor/points, starter & starter solenoid are not the culprit. It would then assume the key switch is worn out or its wires are loose or wired wrong. I really hope that helps. I will answer any questions you have if I don't somehow miss them.
