I don't actually have a timing gauge to see what it's at. ... i timed to the marks and then pushed the pump as for to the head as it would go.Isn't that the sound of too much advance?Yes it is, thats why i said im sure it's advanced enough. I'm thinking the pump might be filling with air while the car sits over night. The rubber line from the filter to the pump is perishing a little. When i bend it in the creases there are cracks in the rubber.If it is too advanced it will be very hard to start. Often you can tell by the effect of the cold start lever. If it is harder to start with the cold start lever pulled, then the pump is too advanced.That was kinda where I was headed, that it was too far advanced.

Where can a person get a spring loaded toggle switch that goes to off when you let it go? I can't find one of those things anywhere.

I can't find one of those things anywhere.As an idea, I used an old blank and hacked off the back 4mm to make a bushing for a power window switch to slide into, that whole assembly went in the dash
far left switch
Ya!
I do know that I drive torque, while listening to my friends prattle on about horsepower.
So do you use 2 10G shotgun blanks like the old Wasp radials?
