thanks for the reply.
someone came over and had a look at it, figures if it's in the carb, the jet's aren't set properly..he didn't mention timing, although you're the 2nd person that has.
I'm not too familiar with how to adjust the timing, but I've got someone I can go to, that can help me out.
Thank you again!
