There was some resistance but I cleaned out the threads on the
offending old body and had the shop a few blocks away match me a die
for cutting good threads.

IT CAME OUT
Well, I had to bump start her. Oldest boy was in the van pushing
me along
the street to get me to 25mph. First two times it did not light
off. I
forgot to open the fuel knob. After munching the rear bumper
shocks I got
her to light off and drove around. She was going great. Went up a
few
small hills, then down a really steep one. Pull a U at a wide
intersection,
floor it up the hill and half way up she just SPIT the offending
plug out
and spewed huge clouds of smoke out from under the hood.
Now I am charging the battery, so that I can get the glow to go
long enough
and the starter wind up fast enough to get it lit off.
