What style of distributor... single Vacuum pod or no vacuum pod?
What did you set the point gap to? What is the timing at?
Is the centrifugal advance inside the distributor free to rotate?
What is the total timing at 3000rpm?
Is the accelerator pump squirting fuel?
Is the choke set correctly?
Does the fuel pump pump enough fuel?
Is the float level set correctly?
