“Champ” for sure…yes she’s key start and no more stomp starter although O do love that option it was deleted when I switched To an automatic transmission

Well I feel like an idiot ? it turns out there needs to be a wire from the "IGN" post on the back of your ignition switch to the coil. I only had the "START" wire connected to the solenoid. She runs like a cha,p now! Thank you everyone for your comments and replies.

Thank you everyone for your replies I’m at work for the next few days and I will Get going on all of your recommendations and send out some pics too.

Hello everyone my name is Brian and I have a 1951 B3D 1 ton. The motor has been converted to 12V and I replaced my transmission with a Chevy 350 automatic with a Wilcap adapter plate that allows for a mini starter. I also Upgraded to a Langdons stove bolt mini HEI dizzy with a brand new square coil and I have a universal B style N228 carburetor. Ive been trying to get the engine to fire and run but no luck. I can Get the engine to turn over but it immediately stalls out. Ive checked the following items to narrow down my issue. fuel pump: it works and pumps fuel into the carb when turning the engine over carburetor: shoots fuel into manifold when throttle is pulled battery: brand new 850 CCA 12 volt battery spark plugs: attached a tester to each plug and I got A positive light for each one im stumped and don’t know where to go from here. The engine just won’t go into an idle. I think I’m close but I just don’t know where to go from here. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you! Brian
