I am new to the forum and a new willy's owner. I recently bought a '52 or '53 CJ3a (no serial number plate). I am trying to get her up and running. I have installed new plugs, wires, distributor cap, points, etc. I had the starter checked and have a new working generator. New 6V battery. She turns over but doesn't start up. There is a spark, and I had someone reset the timing. I have the gas tank out but I am trying to get it to start via starter fluid in the carb. It seems like the turning over is not quite enough to start the motor. Any thoughts or help would be much appriciated!!
