Hot Start Issue Choke stuck?

maybe by original he meant 12* at 1200, and 5* @ 750. When he gets back we'll find out.
But if so that would be just below the low spec for a late 60s Plymouth CAP/CAS 318 2bbl. From 74 FSM when can get the factory specs - I'm assuming he's get a 74 FSM downloaded or purchased.

Apologies I've only had one other carbureted vehicle, a C20, it didn't have timing marks in the right spot so I just timed it by ear, or was a one wire HEI set up.
A friend thought the timing was retarded so I thought it was retarded when it was actually advanced. The first timing attempt the mark was just barely visible at 750. I fiddled with it. I'd assume it is currently between 5-10 degrees. I just timed it by ear the last time I tried it.
I'm not sure it was fully warmed up when I timed it, I just put in a new thermostat. It was stalling out before it warmed up so I was pulling out my hair a bit.
