I could get it to start, roughly but not run. I re timed everything and then pulled the Vaccum advance line to make sure it was fine, well it wasnt, it had a 6 inch split in it. I plugged the carb port and had my 6 year old turn it over. It coughed, spewed some smoke and then roared to life!!! Scared my son half to death! Runs like a sewing machine. Thanks to all of you and the help that you give. What a rush. holy cow. | | |
