have a listen

Ok. Raised the front float. Idles much better. But still wont stay running in once put in gear. Turn up timing more?

That's a good idea. I know your off your timing tab now, but you can kinda eyeball another 5 degrees or so and try it. If that really helps try a little bit more. This is just for test purposes but if it keeps getting better there's a possibility your timing ring has spun on the balancer and you've been getting false readings all along?
