The gentleman started and ran today with an improvised tank. Hoo, she ran ultra rich- sucked gas and smoked white gas fumes. Uneven throttle up, cylinders firing unevenly. Static timing set with an improvised 9V./LED from a Korean refrig. door (unhooked batt.). Will check when running well with an old fashioned timing light- Xenon. Idle screw set full in, when it ran out of gas it screamed RPM's and cut off. Choke was not neccesary to start cold... The carb will be soaked and recleaned, passages chased with guitar strings and fully blown out with compressed air. Thought I did a good job on rebuilding. Hmmph...
The plugs were replaced by the last person who tried to get it running- 1985 or so? I'll get new.
It's a process.
