[QUOTE="CarlHungness, post: 174359, member: 2517"] Seems as though it reached the stage where one says, "Well it[I] has[/I] to run." One end of my KS spring must have twisted a bit, broke and wound itself up amidst the innards. Finally got the cover off, waiting for new spring. Have it timed at 35 with the rebuilt Lucas and will once again give it a go at end of week. Have double frustration now as I'm just starting to oxy weld .063" aluminum and blowing holes with seemingly right tip and setting. Am punishing myself to the point of flagellation it seems. Held a spark plug to the Britax bar with the Lucas and can see spark by the way, and don't know what else to do to the fuel system. [/QUOTE]
