So, WILL IT RUN? engine prep on the 1937 Morris 8 (Ep.3)

In this video, the Morris 8's engine is prep'd & checked, but ... will it run? Follow this video as I check over the pre-war car's 918cc engine to prepare it for running. The fuel system receives a check over, as does the ignition side of things to ensure a healthy spark. The carburettor didn't want to co-operate, and there was no sign of a spark at the plugs, but at least it had lights! This is episode 3 in the ongoing story of re-commissioning a classic Morris 8, links to ep.1 and ep.2 will feature at the end of this vid. Thanks for watching - if the oily-rag renovation of this 1930s Morris is of interest, or classic cars in general are, please consider Liking and Subscribing in order to catch future video uploads about the Morris, and other vehicles here at Old Classic Car HQ. #classiccar #classiccars #classiccarrestoration Please note, I'm not a pro at any of this garage tinkering, so don't do what I do as it could all easily end in tears. Hopefully there'll be something of interest though, buried within my amateur-hour tinkerings.
