Timing help needed

Again, IMO any carb’d car should be a bit pissed off at cold start. If it’s not, it’s fat at idle.
Agreed. I know mine are too rich if they idle on their own on first startup of the day, in much less than a minute, and that's in summertime. And then a few minutes of driving to get the intake good and warm.Of course, I also never use chokes!
