I am trying to resurrect an old Case W-3 backhoe with a G159(I think) gas engine. One piece at a time I?m making progress. It has been running on only 3 cylinders and number 4 was pumping oil into the exhaust manifold. I adjusted the valves earlier today and #4 was way off. I then discovered that by pulling the plug wire almost all the way off (just #4) that it will fire and run as it should. I did put a set of plugs (Autolite 386?s) in it when I got it running and maybe I need to put another in #4 but are there any other ?get me by? solutions I can do to keep it running until I can give it the overhaul I expect it really needs? Many thanks.
