Thanks for the replies...I had no idea that I would get this much. I will try and answer a couple of these in the same reply if that"s all right...
Errin, I would agree that 45-50 is really low. I do put oil in the cylinders and it will get to 100 psi in each cylinder to no avail. However, I do have to turn the starter using a 12 volt boost directly on the starter and frame because the 6 volt starter will only crank it two times since the psi is so high.

Myrl, It has 1243 directly on the manifold as the firing order.

George, THank you big time for the webiste...Altoona is actually 12 minutes from my house!!!!

Rusty, I have two BF Avery books, the first being a reproduction BF Avery oweners manual and a MMoline parts and maintenace book for the BF Avery A. One book has the engine specs for valve lash to be .006 and .008 and the other has it as .01 and .008. I also have a running BF Avery R with the same engine that I will check with a feeler gauge (should have done that already I guess but figured at least one of the book had to be correct)

2x4, I though of advancing the cog but I moved the distributor in a clockwise motion at 1/4 inch increments ALL the way around to see if I could get it to fire. I did not have any luck but I guess I should put the distributor where I think it should be and try it again.

I think I will go home tonight and check the running Avery and it"s valve clearence with a feeler gauge and see how much different it is from the .006 and .008 in the book. Thanks guys for all of the replies...I will give it a shot and catch up with this posting tom morning.

THANKS AGAIN!
