IT IS ALIVE
After testing the plug for nice spark, I start playing with timing lever and the engine fired up. Seems it runs the best with timing lever all the way down, what is inconvenient for driver.
Also gears operate differently than manual says.
When I let the hand brake go, nothing happens. When I push left pedal forward, it seems to get into high speed. Could that be 2nd gear?
The same with reverse, when I push the pedal it gets into pretty high speed, what with lack of mirrors can get scary.
I drove it on my yard only as with jump cable for starter it is not safe to take it to the street, but once I get the switch in order >>> LAS VEGAS HERE I COME.
