Well, the old girl started right up this morning, believe it or not. It would only run for 20-30 seconds after pushing the clutch in. Then, would pull her again, and would fire right up. No smoke, believe it or not and good oil pressure.
I definately am going to double check the timing, and replace the cork float with the brass one I bought.
Every once in awhile she'd backfire, and shoot fire out the carb, but all in all she sounded pretty good. I'll get her fine tuned and "right, then post a video on Youtube with sound.
PS: for those of you who haven't seen the previous posts, this is a 1928 regular I got out of an old, fallen down barn in May.
