My piston repair on the water pump seemed to be helpful, as
it’s now pumping water. The carb adjustment is very touchy,
and the port side exhaust gasket is leaking water (water cooled muffler),
and I’m not sure if some water could be getting into the port cylinder,
causing the erratic running?
At least the coil swap seems to be working good.

Hopefully the Feds won’t come after me for the destruction of the dime!
I ground the hard surface on the piston square on the belt sander to
get it nice and clean, then silver soldered the dime to it.
Then chucked in in the lathe and turned it down to the correct OD.
Prepare to be boarded!
