desertdog,
You were right on with the jumper wire from the plus side of battery to plus side of the coil. Your idea worked even though I did not have ignition switch installed yet, just a remote push button starter unit turning the engine over. It started after the carb filled with gas and ran great even though I had just dynamically timed the engine, and estimated the fuel air adjustment on the one barrel carb. The fuel pump was a little balky, slow to pump fuel but it still started right up, idled well cold on choke and idled fine even when it warmed up and rev it off fast idle, to a very low idle.
Thanks for the help. It is greatly appreciated.
