I do have the choke engaged (manual choke), and I think I should have fuel. It may have flooded when I poured gas into the bowl vent tube, it's hard to hit that little hole.
I'm going to go out and check the valve adjustment again and re-check the timing. Then give it another shot.
At least it's turning over well. And I have good oil pressure.

I am currently digging back in to a 1953 3800 (one ton) with a nine foot bed. I've owned it since 1979, and drove it until 1982 (or so). My wife got me involved in restoring it back in 2002, got the body removed and the frame redone, then things came up. Now I am retired and starting again. If anyone is interested I have photos on Imagur (
