Finished everything up last night and cranked it up. It ran great. I let it run a couple minutes then pulled it forward in to the garage. I was really tired and ready for bed. This morning i cranked her up again backed out of the garage and let it run for about 10 minutes. It sounded beautiful. Then i drove it around to the front of my house. It was running perfect...then i was going around the block to see how road worthy she was before i went driving all around town. After about 3/10ths of a mile it started acting like the choke was on or something similar. the rpm 's were volatile and it was cutting out. It will run and idle but its rough and not the way it should be. I put new plugs in it and that wasnt the problem, the choke was off. My two guesses are that the fuel mixture on the carb might be wrong? That was a suggestion from a friend of mine also i think the timing could be off although it doesn't make sense that it would run good then bad. I checked to see if the carb float was stuck that wasnt it. Any guesses? It has good oil pressure and its getting fuel to the carb because the clear filter is nearly full.
