Woodgas 2020.....AGAIN!

Today we spent doing maintenance I was hoping we would get it all done, but not quite.
The grate is done. The gasifier is back together just have to build a charbed and test drive.
I did an oil change and a tune up. Found two spark plugs that were broken and look like they had been that way a little while. I haven’t checked them since i was at home. It has been running on six cylinders. they were on opposite sides so i guess they balanced out and i never really noticed it. the Distributor cap also had a broke bolt and one was loose so it was flopping around I tried to drill out the bolt but the little tab that the bolt goes through broke off. I JB welded it but the junkyard said they would have one in the morning and it won’t cost much so i will put a new one in. I also put a new throttle body in it. the old one the butterflies were no longer round but oval and it wouldn’t idle at all. I have yet to run it due to the distributor being out will see tomorrow.
