Just a thought . . . could possibly be a combination of timing advance (or lack of it) with carby adjustments / tuning. When I got mine running it was rough and wouldn't rev. Loosened distributor and gave it a fairly decent turn and things got a lot better.

This was strange because timing initially appeared to be correct using a timing light. My engine still is rough and climbs to revs with a little missfiring but much better than it was. I'll get back to it later, and maybe I'll find the dizzy advance mechanism needs to be replaced.
