OK...over lunch I went home and changed the exhaust to .010 and the intake to .008. I also checked the distributor wire connections and adjusted the timing as Myrl instructed. It was sputtering a little as I was turning it over with just the 6 volt on a charger. It only sputtered the first two times I turned it over and then stopped over the next few cranks. I then dripped some ether, and not much, straight in the cylinder and turned it over. IT ACTUALLY, but barly, fired on all cylinders and I had a lot of white smoke but did not really "start". It seems like the timing is close but there is something else wrong. Could I have the wrong spark plugs in it? Maybe the don't produce spark that is "hot" enough? Myrl...I couldn't remember what the .20 was for...is that the distance from the copper peice on the rotor to the points underneath the distributor cap or where the spark is created inside the distributor when the ?arm?peice? breaks contact and creates sparks. Sorry..new to some of this. Thank you for the continued support! Steve
