Ok, cleaned plugs, TDC - which is about 5-10 degrees retarded, probably got it to start around 5 degrees advanced (according to the ball on 216 flywheel) adjusted it to about 10 degrees advanced, which kept it running. Really rough though and lite popping sound out the muffler. I didn't want to mess with it anymore until I got some advice first 😉
