I set the gap a couple months ago, before any attempt to start it. I didn't use a light to verify, but I plan to recheck it this weekend. Thanks for the sun trick.trek97 said:did you check point gap and static timing? If you can keep her idling for a bit check timing w strobe light.
Park her w exhaust pointed towards sun, on a "no breeze" evening. When she starts to bog on throttle, watch exhaust for black smoke. Black smoke says shes too rich and need to jet down. Or keep her bogging for a bit. Then check plug. If its cleaner and white, shes too lean. black plug = rich.
