    got it timed around tdc for retard and approx 30 degrees full advance, she's pretty crude.
    went off to bycycle shops looking for parts, one guy laughed at me speiling all his bullshit that things have changed (skip tooth chain) so i asked how i was able to walk into repco and get the right plug, that's different....
    anyway when the parts saw it he pulled a chain out straight away that was the right dimension
