Timing light?

Don't think so Jack, got a filter back at the tank built into the fuel pump and another in line filter just in front of the carbs. Pump is new Low Pressure type from Advance Auto, < 3 months old. Duplicate of the old OEM Style that was in there for $50.00 and change. Exact replacement and I think it is a good pump. Don't have a pressure gauge on it but I just might put on in line to see if any pressure fluctuations. I'll start with draining the dampers and go to a lighter oil to see if that might be my issue but I've used 3 in 1 oil, in the Red Can, for years with no issues.

Hey down in your neck of the woods in Tampa all week on business. Home tomorrow night, get to play with Bugsy on Saturday. Yeah!!!
 
Jim, what I ment by crud was, do you have fuel comming through as it should.
 
JAck,

I'll have time to take a look at that issue Saturday morning. I'll provide a full report. Now to find a clean can in the garage to pump some gas into.
