I want them

Do you still have the jump seat frames

Any idea on new dizzys I'm waiting for yours but if it's going to be a really long time I will go through specter

Any idea when the electronic dizzys will be available again

Ok so update. I was trying different springs on the accelerator pump the linkage spring because the one on my carb was a bunch of little ones the previous owner piled up on there. Well I had one on there that was pretty stiff and it ran great in the driveway just not under load so I found one...

I will try that. I was driving it yesterday and noticed that when I am in first taking off from a stop or when I switch gears and the Rpms are low is when it lacks power bad but if I pull the choke it helps big time then when I get the rmps up push the choke in. Kinda tells me it's something in...

Can I get some info on a carb and dizzy from you. Prices etc.

Ok what is your timing set at. When I first checked the timing I know it was set pretty far advanced

I will double check 153624

I have heard nothing but good about trollholl. I am definitely interested in getting a carb and dizzy

So when I set my points gap to 0.018 and the dwell reading is way off unless I pull up on the front (diaphragm side) of it and it will read 38 degrees but when I let it go it goes back down to about 20 would you say that the play in the dizzy shaft is a problem

I don't consider myself a mechanic I have been tearing things apart and fixing them my whole life. When I rebuilt the carb I used pin heads videos on YouTube as a guide and all looked up the specs for the carb. I could tell that the carb had been taken apart before probably several times. The...

Yes I do believe the dizzy is bad. Any ideas where I can get a good one for a reasonable price. The local parts house can get me a rebuilt one for 103

It's looking like you are correct I'm pretty sure the bushings in the dizzy are worn and I'm getting to much play in the shaft. When it's running I can move it back and forth enough to where one direction it's right at 40 degrees and the other way it's like 20 degrees

Yes I made sure the rotor was pointing at the number one spot on the cap and the firing order is correct it is timed to the bb at 650 rpm. It's runs perfect until I drive it when it's a load the weight of the vehicle is when it does the backfire from the carb and lacks power
