    check the timing

    as has been said before, they only need a couple of things so do a process of elimination

    check each cylinder has a strong spark

    check its getting fuel and air


    if it has these 3 then really it should run

    If the motor clears and runs nice when you spray the carb cleaner around the outside of the manifolds, then that means you have a air leak. Either plug up your leaking hose, or get a new manifold gasket.

    advance 4~ worked pretty good for my 4ks. it might work for you or you might want to churn it out all the way advance and then turn it back untill it stops pinging.( what most guys on here would do)
