Last weekend I ran out of gas, duh. The gauge doesn't work, I just blew it. So anyway it's really dry now, and I put some gas in. I changed the spark plugs and gapped them at .035 instead of .025 bec

Thanks Jack, I don't think it's that because fuel seems to be dripping from the carbs after a lot of trying to start it, but it is a good thought. I will keep messing with it, I'm off to get more gas

I was very careful about the spark plug leads and yes I have double and triple checked them. It may be the sediment thing, I sure hope not. I can't see any debris in the filter, and there is fuel dri

I did regap all the plugs to .25 still no start, I'm still looking. I know there is spark to the points. I forgot to turn the key off before putting the screw driver into the points, and I saw the s

Thanks, I'm pretty sure I put it back exactly. It hasn't been the most cooperative in starting for a while (couple of months) but it did start. I'll keep looking for what I did wrong. Jane blew the

I do have the manuel adjustment on the dist, and I did turn a bit, guess I better borrow my friend's timing light and check that out too. I know better than to change a bunch of things all at once, b

I tried that and the but not listening to whether it tried to catch or not. I'll try that. What I did notice was that the points were not moving. Don't the points open and shut as the dist. goes arou

This sounds like a problem. Try resetting the points gap, and make sure the lobe on the distributor is in "the right spot". If you know what I mean, skip the next paragraph :-) IE, figure out where t
