Its cool out today so no issues with my drive. I will set it up to 16 degrees in the crank and see how it goes..
Thanks for the direction
I wouldn't do 16 initial unless I knew what my total would be with that and you can't know that until you map your advance curve. It's important you set it up right to avoid detonation. I was suggesting that 10 is likely still a bit low and you may need to dial in your vacuum advance to get the proper advance at idle which will help with your hot carb issue by keeping the engine cooler. L78 steve was suggesting that may be your issue back in post #7.
