    the clip is usefull  but if I am not wrong it was the help out the sticky  teflon coated needles come back down to let fuel in … some folks like to  keep and reuse the older non teflon needles .. just make certain the passage is clean.

    as to weakspark  reclean the points  and  if no improvement switch condensers as a test.

    what is the Kohms value on your  2 coil secondaries . for some reason I prefer the ones with 4-8 kohms max.

     

    prop.. it depends… motor is a 4500 rpm engine so prop needs to matched to the load

    amazon has cheap RPM readers…you can use to  confirm the best choice or… just check what you have now !
