OK, i got it to run, but it still wont idle. if you stay on the gas, it sounds pretty good except for an exhaust leak. Could this exhaust leak cause it to not idle? Wouldn't an exhaust leak make it run a little bit higher and nicer but sound like sh*t?
it is at TDC the dot and the dowel, and the grove in the cam chain sprocket, and the crank pully all point up. the timming light flashes at about 5degs to get it to run smoothly. The rotor is pointing at 11:00, and the drill hole on the dist. shaft drive gear is at about 11:55.
It will stay running if im on the throttle. but if I let go , it putters and dies. I put my finger on the mech fuel pump line into the carb, and it wasn't powerfull enough to squirt out, but when i let go it shot out pretty good. poured gas into carb, didn't show any difference.
Could the carb be bad , vacume? dirty?
