My shop time comes in brief stints but today I put the ignition back together and roughly timed it. It makes sparks when I kick the engine over so it looks like the ignition is okay.
I tried firing some starter fluid in the intakes and kicking it through a few times but all I could get were some anemic coughs from the pipes. It also seemed to blow out through the carbs a couple of times. I should probably pull the valve cover off and make sure all is well in there.
The kick mechanism seems to get stuck or hung up after a few kicks. I may have to pull off the inner timing cover to check that out.
