The Utility Four was replaced by the Atomic 4 in 1947. - Paul E. 1979 C&C 29 Mk1 S/V Johanna Rose Carrabelle, FL On May 17, 2013, at 8:33 AM, cnc-list-requ...@cnc-list.com wrote: Date: Fri, 17 May 2013 09:23:05 -0300 From: "Hoyt, Mike" <mike.h...@impgroup.com> To: <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> Subject: Re: Stus-List Marine vs Automotive parts Message-ID: <4cdebb6b0f16c541ba8f985b72705d5416021...@hfxexc02.impgroup.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" I once heard a story that the Atomic 4 was the power plant in the WW II landing craft.

Earlier in the week I ruled out electrical and began looking at the fuel system. But, I had not been thorough with my electrical troubleshooting. Bottomline, I got a $38 bag of NAPA parts (distributor cap, rotor, condenser and points), replaced the easier two (cap and rotor) first and the engine fired up immediately. I should follow Dwight's advice and replace this stuff (+ plugs and inline fuel filter) annually. If they float, I'll save them as spares. A4s are the BEST. I don't understand why anyone would want a diesel. :-) Bob M Ox 33-1 JAx, FL -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

However, I'm guessing you are like most of us on this list, & also older than dirt. And from what I can garner, like Joe says, over time WD-40 has had its propellant changed from propane to carbon dioxide. You can spray it into a flame and it will put the flame out. I don't think it works for engine starting anymmore. However, I could be wrong. I thought I was wrong once, but I was mistaken. Bill Coleman C&C 39 -----Original Message----- From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Rick Brass Sent: Friday, May 17, 2013 11:27 PM To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Subject: Re: Stus-List Starting a diesel WD-40 was the diesel starting fluid of choice among the diesel mechanics I knew. It is more combustible than diesel and much less explosive than ether. Apparently it helps the first cold squirts of diesel to ignite and burn more fully, which heats up the cylinder walls and promotes ignition. Most would not use ether because of the potential for the ether to ignite too soon and cause piston, pin, or connecting rod failures. No diesel engine will start with fuel, pump, etc turned off. Cough maybe, but not start. Diesel starting was about the only thing my mechanic friends used wd-40 for, actually. The penetrating oil of choice was PB-Blaster.

Then one time I actually tried it , several ways with fuel off, pump off, etc, couldn't even get a dry fart out of my 107 Perkins. That was it, the can came off the boat and up the hill. I don't know anyone who has actually gotten this "Miracle Juice" to work for engine starting, I would be curious to hear if anyone else has?

Earlier in the week I was unable to perform the ultimate ignition test, that of observing a spark at the tip of the plug while the starter was turning.There was nobody at the dock to press the starter button and I didn't want to try wiring some sort of bypass. All of the other ignition troubleshooting could be done singlehanded. I should've used my cellphone to video the plug tip while I was in the cockpit pushing the starter button.
