OK, did manage to get out there a bit today...

watching the pump shot while my helper stomped the pedal, shows a great squirt X 5 or so. no failures, no dry pumps. plenty of fuel. Orange cam with screw in #2 slot. Base timing was 2° and should have been 10° BTDC. So, I actually set it at 12, but may go back to 10. Not suer why the timing was so retarded. let me drive her and see how we do, and i'll post the list. thanx again. s
