    Waunnaboat,

    I figured out my issue. There was a small grit that was stopping up the carb from fuel flow, and also the points reset themselves to fully closed when I tightened the screws, and didn’t notice!

     

    Thanks!

    Learning by experience. Self-taught. Someone could have told you to always re-check the gap after tightening the screw. Could have red it some where. But the lessons that you teach yourself your not likely to ever forget.    

     

     

    A "Boathouse Repair" is one thats done without having tools or the skills to do it properly.
