Its alive
ALIVE
Okay now that the melodramatics are over. I figured out what i did wrong and i think i might have to bash my head for not figuring it out earlier.
It turned out to be bad gas. Thats it bad gas.
Cleaned the carb, new plugs, new coil, new battery, rewired the ignition system, re timed, reset and cleaned points. Re timed her and now she runs like a top, dug a fair hole in the back yard already.
Have a good one.

Hi,
MawDang.
There was another thread where we were talking about gas issues, and I should have thought to point you in that direction as a possible culprit. Sorry about that, chief!

Ahh.. now you know that everything else is correct you don't have to worry about it in the future.
I have found with crawlers that any stone left unturned is a stone you'll be turning over next time you attempt to use your crawler until you've turned them all over. (Lots of experience with that one)
