Dan, these old engines want to run..they just need a little help. Gotta have Spark, Fuel, Compression to run. Let us know how you make out with phase 1. Don't give up if she doesn't start. Check compression, dry and wet - lots of old post here that detail that process. Spark and fuel are easy to check, put a little fuel in the carb to prime. If spark is there but weak, might want to get a new coil, points, condenser and replace the plugs. Worth the investment if you have good compression, need to regroup if not. Assuming timing is close, she will run. Pretty exciting to see one of these old girls come to life after 25 years ! Good luck.
Allen Yeah, well, that's just like, you know , your opinion, man - The Dude
