no timing light.

I'm thinking I may need to bite the bullet and buy a new carb. I don't know. very frustrated.

Plenty of timing lights on ebay for under $20

Much cheaper than a new carb.

callin it a night.

once again thanks everyone for all your help and insight!

it's running now just gotta figure out the quirks.

gonna see if I have a timing light at work and go from there.

maybe just need to walk away and think for a while. usually seems to help me in these situations.

god bless.
