The engine has been reconditioned . John left the fuel tank and fuel pump dissconected- I assume as not to allow stale fuel to accumulate or attract moisture in the tank. Later we will show you his ingenous methods of starting this engine. All records are kept as to when it was last run and a full run down on the history of each cylinder and and valve. I suspect that John treated this car as one would treat any precision instrument- with the utmost of diligence!
