Well, the 235 is running again! I'm not quite sure what the solution was. I rebuilt the old carb, adjusted the points and added 5 deg timing. It still hesitates if I snap the throttle but runs down the road fine which works for me.
Thanks for all the tips y'all! I love how hopeful this community is when I run into trouble.
That is the trouble with "fixing" too many things at once.........makes determining the root cause of the original problem nearly impossible.
