    I can tell you this: engine idling; if turn the dist CCW [ to advance the timing ] to about 28-30*, the engine will: - idle faster [ making more hp ] - idle smoother - make more vacuum - run cooler. I would do this, re-adjust carb, see if it helps the stalling problem. Backfiring could be many...

    Paint sanding question
