I"ve got a Yale forklift with a 1953 u2a IH power unit (which seems to be the same motor as in the A and Super A). Stupid question #1: Where is the fuel pump? I would just follow the fuel line, but the fuel is currently coming from a mountain dew bottle.

Stupid question #2: Is this thing + ground? I know it is 6 volt, but it didn"t have a battery in it when I got it. I think it is, but I"d appreciate a head nod from someone who has one of these motors. Not so stupid questions: How much ignition timing should this have? When I got this thing the distributor was locked up (due to an overly long screw holding the condenser) and the distributor gear was partially stripped. Needless to say, I need some place to start, and I would prefer starting at the right setting.
