All replies appreciated.

First two pics are with the distributor advanced by hand to the stop. They show the throttle position at full advance (not very far open) and the view of the control shaft in relation to the diamond shaped projection, (they look parallel to me).
The second two are of the belt timing marks.
The only way I’ve ever been able to set the points is to rope it around with a multimeter attached, and watch for them to open when the red marks on the distributor wheel line up with the pointers on the housing. The way it starts so easily and runs so smoothly at low and medium speeds, I’ll be surprised if the gap is way off.
But I bet this is one small mistake that I keep missing, and I am very open to correction or speculation.
I very much appreciate the support.
Happy Fourth of July to all!
