I appreciate everyone's input, as always. I'm confident that it will
fire up once primed. I'm still selling it though. We're just not in a
position to restore this motor coach to the grandeur it is capable of.
Not into it that much to be honest. It was a gift, and a favor at once -
we took it off my mother-in-law's hands when she realized what a chore
it will be. I've got 2500 into it already. I want to cut my losses and
get it into the hands of someone who really wants it, if such a person
is out there.
I'll go get a can of starting fluid as soon as the NAPA opens in a few
hours. That HAS to be the issue because it ran great 10 or 12 days ago.
I'll report back to the list.
Thank you all very much!

Dave, a note from a GMC nut: It was once explained to me that we, who are
in possesion of rare and antique objects, are mere caretakers of them. Our
lives are changed by contact with them. Some good, some bad. If your
interests lie in other directions than wrenching rusty, stubborn,
eccenctric objects, perhaps it is time to seek out someone who willingly
accepts that role and enjoys it more than you. But, the responsibility lies
with you to insure that the coach is used, and not scrapped or allowed to
wither and have no value. As the saying goes, at least DO NO HARM.
