I am finally road testing my 2.0 restoration and haven't quite got it right yet. It starts fine, runs smooth idling or revved up in the driveway but on the road test it accelerated slow, with what sounds like valve chatter when I give more gas to accelerate. It wouldn't go over 3000 rpm in 1st, 2nd or third. I tweaked the timing a bit and it seemed to get better, less chatter and almost up to 4000 rpm. Suggestions, comments; am I on the right track?
