Good morning,

When I start my M it runs fine. After using a while starts to miss. Did complete tune up, points condenser, wires, coil ect. Same problem happens again. I have to work the choke back and forth to keep it running. Checked for gas flow from the tank. Flows good. What could it be.

Thanks.

I have had these exact problems caused by clogged cap vent.

Check the screen where the fuel line connects to the carburator if you havent already.

Mark, I am inclined to agree with Jerry, that there is a fuel problem, the fact that you can keep it running by playing with the choke rules out any electrical problem. You have a drain cock on the carb and when you open it you should let it run into a container and let it run for a good minute, the stream should be a good "pee" and it shouldn't slow down during the time the carb is open, if draining the carb doesn't do it you need to get at that needle valve, good luck from Mike in Exeter Ontario

Take the drain plug out of the bottom of the carb and see if you have a steady stream of fuel. If not pull bottom of carb off and clean the trash out of the needle valve assembly. Hope this helps.

It is hard to say for sure, but I would check for holes in the manifold. A vacum leak could reduce the updraft off of the carb. Requiring you to choke it. Also the tank could have particulate in it that is large enough to close off the hole to the bowl.
