Man, I just got done out there messing with everything. I have the standard exhaust smell emitting though my pores.

Basically, I set it at 5 degrees BTDC as in Wayne's book, then I adjusted the screw out and messed with the mixture screw, it took me a while but I finally got it to idle right aroung 950, perfect!

I took it out for a drive and the RPMs did not go up like they were and everything seemed great. So, I stepped on it..............well in pinged like there was no tomorrow as soon as I hit the 5000 mark.

I give up!!!!!!!!!!

It is going to the mechanics tomorrow morning, as I said earlier for the clutch adjustment so I'll see what he can do.

Thanks for everyone's help.
