Alright....she's running.....not happy with the current state...
The good....no more missing when I rev...smooth instant throttle response...unbelievable how much more power it feels like it has....I believe I got this fuel distributor licked! I need to tweak it still...
The bad.....smoking badly.....I had no smoke before this....I wonder if flooding the motor so much did some damage? She never really ran with flooded oil...I let it idle for an hour, and it would clear up a lot, but whenever I rev it up....I exterminate every mosquito in a 3 mile radius. I am hoping the engine is just full of oil, and it's burning out.....I hope....the smoke is blu-ish white...
Second, when I rev the motor, and release the throttle, sometimes the rpms drop slowly, and she sticks about 1500 rpms....I then play with the mixture/idle, and get her back down....this is minimal to the smoke....
I had a very loud backfire right after I started her up and got it running...(which took about 4 hours)....after that, she ran pretty good..
So...running pretty good...needs more adjustment, smokes badly...
