I rather doubt the wisdom of trying to do much with them. They advised against having anything done as it might result in pulling the teeth and that would certainly be very unfortunate. I don't believe that I would touch them at least not for present. With regard to starter I believe you had better have one put on as it is quite a job to spin the motor and you might get what I did and I wouldnt want that for any thing. I think though when you have a warm car that you flood the engine with gas. If you will wait a little while or cut the gas down at the needle valve you will get along better. You will have to do that any way. Do not pull out on the wire except for the first two or three turns. Well must close and mail this as it is almost mail time. Yours with Love Walter [drawing} How I would like to be.
