Alright here is the deal, ever since i converted to carbs i have had my spark plug wires set up like this ( picture ) but it runs crappy and I set the timing but still runs like crap. Now my question is after I was browsing pictures on here I see that it looks like my plug wires are set up wrong. But when i switch them to like this ( 2nd picture ) it just turns over and then ... pops like a timing issue. WTF!

As far as I can tell, you have them right in the first pic. Webers routinely clog the idle jets after you mess with them- ie remove or install them or the engine.
Try cleaning the idle jets. Starting with the #1 plug, go clockwise around the distributor cap and it should be 1-4-3-2. You can also go backwards around, (CCW) it's 1-2-3-4. |
