Well thanks to all who gave me advise on the 8N.(I think I posted the problem on about 5 May). I finally got it running and running good. Since I had shotgunned and replaced the points, plugs, condensor,cap, coil, rotor, wires and rebuilt the carb and it still didn't run I ignored the manual where it says that plugs are the most common problem for my symptom, I also ignored the advise someone on this forum gave me "Champion H-12s are no good". Out of desperation I went to the "Autolite" equivalent "216", put them in and it runs better than ever. Maybe I got 3 bad plugs (3 of four wouldn't fire on a test) or maybe the Champions are not as good, I don't know, but for now I am happy that I found the Autolite 216. Thanks again, Mark Jones
