Response to Total timing

Thanks Bill. Got the light and have it timed to TDC. I plan to run out to one of the auto stores today and see if I can find one of those stickers that lay out the degrees. I'm hoping to find a way to cheat before bringing on the math. Once I have her running respectable, I plan to play with the weight springs some to fine tune things and I'm thinking one of those stickers will make that easier. I sure hope it's just a matter of advancing the timing. It seems odd to have it go south quickly like this...
