i have 1984 mcm 120 ser#66-----. after tune up including coil, wires, plugs, cap, rotor, change to electronic ignition..all those are to spec....engine started immediately upon cranking. after adjusting timing to 8 degrees btdc (i think i remember checking mark BEFORE loosening distributor and is was way before 8 degrees...like where 20 degrees btdc or so would be if marks went that far) now engine only barely cold starts when i add some throttle..and runs rough til it warms up, then runs fine. i know all parts that i replaced are correct even plugs are mr43t but i was told to increase gap from .035 to .040. any ideas? thanx
