The timing simply does not go out of adjustment.----Well ,----- except for a sheared flywheel key !

Very hard for the timing to go out of adjustment on these simple motors.

That’s what I was thinking. I’m beginning to think it is a spark issue. Top cylinder it won’t quit jump 7/16th of an inch but bottom on will jump 1/2”
