WTF Big issue

Yep too much initial timing. Are you running the stock starter or late model "mini"? Definitely run the latter. Also, Don't stop the "key" so quick. Better to let it crank over than "blip" the key and break ****. Been there. It was years ago on a chevy but same **** happened.

I`m running 23 degrees initial , Andy F . posted he`s running 24 on his , what are you running ?
