i have owned a lot of old vehicles and i beleive they have a mind of their own. what do you think? when i tell some one that that never has owned an old truck or car they do not beleive me. i park my 54 chevy dually up close to my house in the same spot. i have a certain procedure for starting it and it works every time unless i park her in a different location in the yard and then she will not start the same or not start at all . i keep my truck as original as i can and i talk to her before i start he up and pat the dash. when we return i tell her she did a good job. it seems to work for me . i was at the thrift store with the truck and a guy in the store came out and saw my truck. he said, i like your truck. if you redo the truck with a new engine and transmission it will run a long time. i said, she has run for 52 years with out all that. .
