Hey all. Recently picked up a 31 AE Independence pick up. The old Stovebolt cranks but does not start. I replaced the coil, cap & rotor, points, spark plugs and wires. I also rewired the entire truck. Any tips to get this old man running. I have spark and fuel. Thinking it must be timing but not to knowledgeable on how to set it properly. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
