    No debris in the core plug areas. If some fuel puddling is normal then maybe there was never an issue with the carb, although there was a ton of gunk in there.

    I will try new plugs tonight but aside from that, I will pull the flywheel and check the points. I know the engine has new coils.

    I don’t have the right puller. I need a "harmonic balancer puller" right? I have a 3-jaw gear puller but I can’t get it to hook on the edge of the gear. And I’ll have to buy 1/4"-20 bolts to thread into the holes, right?
