Great news. I went ahead a checked the pushrod adjustment and well, I'm a dork. I snuged all of them up but must of forgot to turn the front cylinder pushrods the 4 turns after that. still didn't run. like it wasn't firing on front cylinder so i checked intake again for leaks with carb cleaner and it died when i sprayed it. took it off and put it back on and it runs great. thanks for all the advice. oh, no its not a HDI. I don't know why that website say to set timing at 35 degrees but my service manual says 20 degrees.
Thanks again. this is a great web site
