Default Help she no go....

OK I finally got done putting Barb back together and she is liquored up oil and water with no leaks-so far . Went to fire her up and got a wimpy pop and then nothing. So here is what I have done so far:


-Timed her three times (according to Les)-the dimple is just past the timing pin hole.
-The rotor lines up with #1 (modern upper plate) and I have 6v with a meter at the points. I also hear and see a spark when I open and close the points.

-I pulled the plugs to make rotation easier and they were bone dry and I have been using starter fluid.
-I have gas going to the carb as I cracked the line and it started to leak.
-She does crank


Any other ideas? Tomorrow I will pull a plug and see if I get a spark at the plug.





Thanks,


Mike
