hey Guys, its been a long while since I have been on here. Had me my first born in the mean time! I bought me another M. this is a "43 model with the magneto. I cleaned the points and restet them to .015" and pulled the plug on the upper manifold, cranked and sprayed gas, got it running. It sounded like it was running on 3 cylinders. As I was running around to get the water hose to put some water in, she let out a flame outta the exhaust and popped and died. I cannot get it to fire like it wants to run. It will pop and blow a few flames. I will mention that I took the bolw off and cleaned a little, but like I say it did run up to a minute, also acted like it was trying to run on all 4, just couldn"t.
