Okay guys so i bought this motor on ebay and the tiller handle was damaged in shipping. I unbolted the stock tiller and replaced with a 1966 tiller handle. The red indicator dot for the throttle position seems to be a little off as far as matching up with the "slow" "Shift" "fast" written on the handle but the carb butterfly opens and closes all the way so i am assuming its no big deal. Is there any way i messed up the timing doing this? Other than that i see low compression being the problem behind my motors lack of top end power, she runs great and idles pretty good but has no top end. The only thing i have checked at this point is the compression, tomorrow i will check the points and make sure they are right, and make sure its running on both cylinders. But unless my compression tester is crazy i figure thats the problem.
So what do i need to get for a rebuild?
