Z134 running rough. Checked compression 120 on 2 cylinders 122 on 2 cylinders. completely overhauled carb, replaced coil and points. Replaced spark plugs. Cleaned fuel tank and put in fresh gas. It has new distributer cap and sp wires. Any Ideas?

check for blown out or leaking intake manifold gaskets. Spray either around manifold to head bolt flange to see if it even out.

Mine was losing all power under a load. I found that it was the strainer in the brass elbow on the carb that was really plugged up. Runs like a top now.

Remove the plug from the bottom of the carb bowl and see if you have the gas flowing free from it. Should fill a pint jar in a minute or two.
