If it is timing, it is just another example of how many carbs have been rebuilt because of ignition problems. Always start with the basics first when one obtains a new/old vehicle. Dont take for granted point gap, spark plugs/valve adjustment and ignition timing, do the easy non invasive things first then ramp up your diagnostics after that.
