Measure one side of the lobe verses the other.
So clear something up for me. You tried to start it 12 times. During those 12 times, how long was it cranked on?
IDK who ground it, or how much taper is has, or doesn’t have, or if you used a dual spring or pulled the inners (waste of time...even with 80 pounds on the seat if you crank on it long enough it will go flat) or used a low ratio rocker, when you crank on the and they don’t run, they die.
