51 Hornet Starter problem Heating?

Anonymous · 2018-06-12T13:43:51Z

My 51 Hornet 308 has a continuing problem with failure to restart once the engine comes to operating temperature. I had the starter rebuilt soon after I bought it. I took it back to the rebuilder who pronounced it OK and suggested I replace all the cables with 1/0, which I did. The problem continues. The battery is a Napa 800 amp model. Another interesting clue. When I direct jump start it with a 12 portable battery it actually turns over more slowly that the 6V battery after it ran down after multiple start attempts. Exasperated. I need wisdom. Dean Prodromos , ,Folsom CA yeah where the prison is.

Ereka!!!
I retarded the spark and the thing starts right up. What can I tell ya, it doesn't sound like my old '57 Chevy when the spark is too advanced.
Now I'm in the market for a torus cover. I don't think I should be traveling without one. Thank you all for your suggestions.
