Thought I'd jump back in to resolve the thread.
Sometimes it's the simplest things that cause the most trouble.
My issue ended up being 2 things. 1) when I was checking the rotor, I put it back in wrong (really got to pay more attention), 2) and this is the best part- I was out of gas! After my 12v conversion, the gas needle bottoms out at just over 1/4 tank and it never occurred to me that that could be the issue.
So it seems, if you put it together the right way and put gas in, it works much better.
