Had a few oil leaks on the H. Figured I'd tune it up with new plugs, cap, & rotor. I put a re-curve kit in the distributor, using the light springs while I was there. I static timed it because I did have the distributor out. I didn't, but probably should have, checked the advance with a timing light. It starts quick and runs great. Its got a woods L59 on it, which really doesn't add much of a load to it, but when I was mowing today, I noticed the throttle response wasn't quite what I wanted or think it should be. It's not a puller, and it really doesn't see any heavy work, other than occasional log skidding. It's a lawn mower and snowplow mainly. I do any heavier work with my SM.

Thinking about advancing it a little....any thoughts are appreciated. Thanks, Shawn

We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t
